Ukraine shelling kills 1, injures more than a dozen in Russia’s Belgorod

Ukrainian forces shelled Russia’s southern Belgorod region on Sunday, killing one person and injuring more than a dozen, including two children who were seriously hurt, regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said.

Gladkov, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said one person died in the village of Shagarovka near the Ukrainian border.

Three people were injured in Shebekino, located on the border, and Gladkov reported attacks on at least one other village.

In shelling earlier in the day, 11 people were wounded, including two boys who underwent surgery after sustaining serious injuries, one with extensive wounds on both legs. Doctors were considering sending them to Moscow for further treatment.
