The Kremlin commented on the shelling of the Belgorod region. According to Putin’s press secretary Peskovaya, the situation with shelling in the region “cannot affect the course of the” special operation “(as the Muscovites call the war they unleashed) of the Russian Federation as a whole.”
Peskov also repeated yesterday’s statement that Putin “constantly and regularly receives information about the situation in the Shebekinsky district from the military, border guards, rescuers and local authorities.”
The battles on the border near Shebekino and Novaya Tavolzhanka were previously reported by Russian telegram channels. On the morning of June 1, the Legion “Freedom of Russia” published a video with a statement about the upcoming event on the territory of Russia.
The Russian Volunteer Corps also uploaded its video, claiming that it was located near Shebekino (Belgorod region of the Russian Federation).
The authorities of the region claim that there are no breakthroughs into the territory of the Russian Federation and they talk about heavy shelling and evacuation of the population. Meanwhile, local residents are fleeing en masse from the city of 40,000 on their own.
Propagandists from TASS reported that on June 1, by decree, he awarded the head of the administration of the Shebekinsky urban district of the Belgorod region, Vladimir Zhdanov, with the Order of Courage for “selflessness shown during the performance of civic duty.”
The Russian dictator himself did not comment on the events in the south of the Belgorod region today, but congratulated his citizens on Children’s Day and met with the priest.
