Escalating Attacks in Belgorod Region Amid Russia-Ukraine Conflict

The governor of Russia's Belgorod region has called on residents to evacuate areas that have been subjected to intense shelling in recent days, as strikes and incursions from Ukraine are increasingly affecting civilians in various Russian border areas. Chebekino, a town with a population of 40,000, has been hit by hundreds of artillery shells this week, causing several deaths and forcing thousands of civilians to flee. The conflict with Ukraine is now directly affecting certain Russian border regions, not just Belgorod.
