Russia’s defence ministry mentioned it had Saturday thwarted extra Ukrainian assaults on the Belgorod border area which the Kremlin says are geared toward disrupting an ongoing three-day presidential election.
“Attacks were repelled and attempts to infiltrate into the territory of the Russian Federation by Ukrainian militant sabotage and reconnaissance groups … were foiled,” the ministry mentioned in an announcement.
Authorities in Belgorod introduced Saturday they have been closing colleges and procuring centres as a result of an uptick in Ukrainian strikes coinciding with Russia’s presidential election.
“Based on the current situation, we have decided that shopping centres in Belgorod and the Belgorod district will not work on Sunday and Monday,” regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov wrote on social media, noting that colleges would even be closed on Monday and Tuesday subsequent week.
