Russian Paramilitaries from Ukraine Launch Cross-Border Attack

The Freedom of Russia Legion, a Ukrainian-based paramilitary group opposing President Vladimir Putin, claimed responsibility for a cross-border attack into Russia's Belgorod region, stating that they destroyed a platoon stronghold of Russian troops near Trebreno village. The group, designated as terrorists in Russia, left mines behind but did not specify casualties. The claims could not be verified, and Ukraine has denied involvement in previous attacks by the group. The governor of Belgorod region reported ongoing clashes with Ukrainian forces, resulting in damage to houses and power lines.
