The security situation between Russia and Ukraine will be stepped up on Wednesday and there is a risk that it will get worse, according to SVT's Russia correspondent in Rapport.

- There are great risks that this will be even much worse.

Exactly how much war there will be and where there will be war in Ukraine is not easy to say, but this can probably end really badly, says Bert Sundström.

It is with a stoic calm that the people of Ukraine handle the ongoing conflict, they believe that they are prepared to defend the country, but I guess the fear is also there according to Bert Sundström.

Hybrid war 

During the day, several banks and authorities were subjected to large-scale cyber attacks in Ukraine.

- We can interpret it as that the war in many ways has already begun, but it is what is called a hybrid war, where the internet and telephone systems and more are knocked out in the country you want to attack,


says Bert Sundström.

- The question now is whether it is the beginning of a major invasion, which may begin next week, he continues.
