Ukraine's air defenses downed more than 30 Russian cruise missiles and Iranian-made drones early Friday, defeating Moscow's 19th aerial assault since May 1.
In a video posted on Telegram early Thursday, an unknown soldier from the anti-Kremlin Freedom of Russia Legion says they will soon be crossing into Russian territory. "We are going to liberate all of Russia from Belgorod to Vladivostok, so that the white-blue-white flag of freedom can be raised in Moscow," he says.
MOSCOW: Drones struck the Russian border region of Belgorod where security operations pressed into a second day after a cross-border raid blamed on fighters from Ukraine, authorities said Tuesday.
At least two Russian soldiers were killed in what Moscow called an incursion by a Ukrainian “sabotage” group into southern Russia’s Belgorod region as fighting continued for a second day Tuesday, the Ostorozhno Novosti news outlet reported.
