Ukraine's army hold tank drills in Kharkiv region amid fears of new Russian assault.

Ukrainian armed forces concluded three-day military tank drills in northeastern Kharkiv region as country’s senior military official warned of possible Russian assault from all fronts.

The rare footage shot by Reuters during the Jan 25-28 exercise was embargoed until Feb 2 for security reasons.

Oleksiy Danilov, Secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council, told Ukrainian and international media he does not rule out another attack from the north, south and east around the date of February 24, the day when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Military experts say Moscow appears determined to push forward in the coming months before Kyiv receives hundreds of newly pledged Western battle tanks and armored vehicles for a counter-attack to recapture occupied territory this year.
