On the same day it was reported that Ukrainian militants shelled Belgorod region with more than 50 shells during the day. As a result of dropping an explosive device from a drone, a self-defense fighter was killed in the village of Terebreno in Krasnoyaruzha district. A civilian was also seriously injured in a UAV attack in the village of Krasnaya Niva, Belgorod district.

The AFU is trying to strike Russian territories against the background of the special operation in Donbass, the beginning of which was announced on February 24, 2022. The decision was taken due to the aggravation of the situation in the region due to shelling by the Ukrainian military.
