Over 800 missile strikes have been reported in Eastern Russia recently, injuring over a dozen residents and damaging numerous buildings.
Strikes in Russia have reportedly ramped up in recent days as Ukrainian forces prepare to launch a major counteroffensive.
On Friday, Vyacheslav Gladkov, governor of Russia’s Belgorod region, claimed in a Telegram post that roughly 850 missiles and other projectiles were launched at Shebekino, a municipality in the region located just near the border with Ukraine. The governor added that the strikes injured 16 people, who are being treated at a hospital in the region’s municipal center, and killed two women from the village of Maslova Pristan.
