National Guard commander Oleksandr Pivnenko said Russian forces could advance 10-20 km from the north at most, but would not reach Kyiv. He warned autumn would be difficult for Ukraine as Russia continues offensive actions. Pivnenko said Sumy, Chernihiv and Kharkiv remain under threat from glide bombs and drones because of their proximity to Russian territory. He added that Ukrainian interceptors are also used against Shaheds, Mavics, Molniya drones and other strike UAVs.
