The Belgorod region in Russia has been targeted for several days by strikes of unprecedented intensity. Moscow accuses the Ukrainian power of attacks on its soil where new civilians have been killed. Thousands of people have already been evacuated.
In the Belgorod region (Russia), two men were seriously injured. According to the Russians, two women also died on Friday June 2 in a Ukrainian attack. A little further on, the town of Chebekino is on fire. The war has come to Russian territory. It is a region patrolled by the Russian security forces that the 20 Hours team discovered on Friday, June 2, in the morning. The area around Chebekino, where the fighting is most intense, is even cordoned off.
Almost empty streets
The teams are warned in the red zone by the small roads of the forest and thanks to a volunteer (I do not understand the sentence). In the opposite direction, residents flee. According to the Russians, this border area was targeted 850 times last night. AT malsova pristan, the streets are almost empty. The volunteer is here on a mission. He comes to get an elderly resident to evacuate her. For this woman, the last few days have been terrifying. Several thousand residents were evacuated from the border area. Almost all arrive in Belgorod, the regional capital. After 15 months of conflict, they can’t believe that the war is at home, in Russia.
