Ukrainian forces carried out 141 attacks on Russia's Belgorod region over the past day, according to Russian authorities, with the strikes resulting in the death of one civilian.
The Belgorod region, which borders Ukraine, has repeatedly come under fire since the start of the war, with Russian officials regularly reporting cross-border shelling, drone strikes and other attacks originating from Ukrainian territory.
Limited independent verification
The figures cited come from Russian authorities, and as with most reporting from the border region, independent verification of the exact number of strikes and the precise circumstances of the civilian death is not readily available.
Ukraine has not issued a public response to this specific report. Kyiv has previously said that strikes on Russian territory, including border regions such as Belgorod, are tied to its broader military campaign against Russian forces involved in the invasion of Ukraine.
Belgorod's regional authorities have periodically reported casualties and infrastructure damage from such attacks throughout the conflict, and the region remains one of the most frequently affected areas on the Russian side of the border.
