Belgorod and other Ukrainian bordering Russian districts have reported continuous attacks from Kiev’s military, as well as sporadic cross-border incursions.
On Saturday morning, three Tochka-U missiles were shot down by air defenses over the area, according to the Russian defense ministry.
The ministry also said it thwarted a drone attack on Moscow.
The mayor of Moscow, Sergei Sobyanin, said there was “no damage or casualties” after air defence downed the drone over the district of Istrinsky.
Attacks on Russian soil, which were infrequent at the start of the onslaught, have increased recently, with Kiev increasingly taking the blame.
