Belgorod and other Russian border regions have faced repeated Ukrainian missile and drone attacks. Earlier in the month, a Ukrainian missile strike on a shopping center in the region’s capital killed seven people – including a one-year-old – and left 19 more wounded. Russian President Vladimir Putin has previously denounced Kiev’s attacks on civilians as “terrorist acts,” promising to respond with strikes on Ukrainian military infrastructure. |
