This was stated by HUR Chief Kyrylo Budanov in a comment to journalists, responding to a question about whether there is reason to fear Russia's threats to strike Ukraine with the Oreshnik missile, Ukrinform reports.

“You've seen that there hasn't been any [warning] from the HUR. Calm down. When something happens, you always receive a warning from us,” he noted.
