Russia claims to have defeated all "Ukrainian terrorists" who attacked the western region of Belgorod. However, Kyiv has denied responsibility for the incursion, and two Russian militia groups have said they were behind the raids.
The attack on Belgorod took place on Monday, May 22, 2023. The attackers reportedly used armored vehicles and artillery to shell a number of civilian targets, including a school and a hospital. There were reports of casualties, but the exact number is unknown.
Russia's defense ministry said that its forces had surrounded and defeated the attackers, and that more than 70 Ukrainian fighters had been killed. However, Kyiv has denied any involvement in the attack, and the two Russian militia groups that claimed responsibility have not been identified.
The attack on Belgorod is the latest in a series of cross-border incidents between Russia and Ukraine. In recent months, there have been a number of reports of shelling and gunfire along the border, and both sides have accused the other of provoking the incidents.
The situation in the region remains tense, and it is unclear whether the attack on Belgorod will lead to an escalation of the conflict.
