Russia’s FSB says the intensity of Ukraine’s shelling of border-straddling areas has “significantly increased” over the past week, TASS cites the agency.
“Since the beginning of October, the number of attacks on the border-straddling areas of Russia in the regions of Bryansk, Kursk and Belgorod has significantly increased. Over the past week, more than 100 shellings of 32 settlements in the Bryansk, Kursk and Belgorod regions were recorded using multiple launch rocket systems, cannon artillery, mortars and unmanned aerial vehicles,” FSB’s statement reads.
One person was killed and five were wounded, including one child. Two electrical substations, 11 residential buildings, two administrative buildings and eight border checkpoints were also damaged.
A military airfield in Russia’s Kaluga region suffered an explosion on Friday, 7 October. A drone, allegedly from Ukraine’s territory, caused the explosion, the local governor says.
