Belgorod
A city in Russia located near the border with Ukraine, in particular with the Kharkiv region. On March 29, explosions and a fire occurred in Russia's Belgorod at an ammunition depot located 15 kilometres from the border with Ukraine. On the morning of April 1, a fire broke out there again – at an oil depot. There are several injured. The Russian side traditionally blames Ukraine for the air strikes. However, let us recall that our country, as a matter of principle, does not strike enemy territory.
