"Belgorod: Russian Aircraft 'Losing' Bombs and Evacuating Children Amid Ukraine-Russia Conflict"

Russian aircraft have been "losing" high explosive aerial bombs over the Belgorod region, with incidents occurring en route to or returning from missions against Ukraine. Villages near the Ukrainian border have been affected, with residents evacuated and bombs defused or destroyed. The FAB series of general-purpose bombs, developed in the Soviet Union, have been linked to these incidents, which have caused damage and interrupted daily life. The accidental drops are believed to be connected to attacks against free-Russian forces, and the bombs are unguided and compatible with most models of Soviet aircraft.
