Five civilians were killed and 37 others were wounded, including six children, late on August 30 when Kiev forces fired several salvos of rockets at the Russian region of Belgorod.
“Our air defense system worked over Belgorod and several targets were shot down as they approached the city,” Belgorod Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said on Telegram. “To our great sorrow, one person died as a result of a direct hit on a passenger car.”
In addition to the vehicle, an apartment building and several commercial buildings were struck by rockets, according to the governor.
Gladkov later updated the death toll to five, saying that a woman and four men died on the spot from their injuries before the ambulances arrived.
The attack was carried out using rockets armed with cluster munitions Czech-made RM-70 Vampire multiple launch rocket systems, the governor revealed.
The attack also caused property damage to three apartment buildings in the city, as well as two commercial buildings. Two houses in the nearby settlement of Dubovoye were set on fire by the incoming missiles, but it was quickly extinguished by emergency services.
The Kiev regime stepped up attacks on Russian territory in the last few months, with Belgorod being one of the main targets.
The latest deadly attack on the region will not likely go without a response. The Russian military will likely retaliate by targeting Ukraine military infrastructure and related energy facilities.

where is the response from putin for the invasion of kursk and is he planning on acting the same way for this latest terrorist attack by the neo nazi ukropistan regime? it’s time to act mr president or resign and let someone else do it for you.
this is another “clown show war” for the leadership of russia and nato got together and drew up papers on who can shoot where and when. the west, nato, never keeps its word and continues to escalate the conflict.. maybe putin will wake-up before the conflict ends..!
fašistické svine z kyjeva nič iné nedokážu iba útočiť na bezbranných civilistov. pre toto rusko nesmie nikdy pristúpiť na rokovanie z fašistami!!! za toto budú musieť niesť zodpovednosť a byť aj potrestaní. iné je keď útočia na vojenské zariadenia, či armádu. svetu mier!!!
so… when does the russian federation take out the rest of the roads, bridges and rail systems that connect ukraine to russia leaving only f-16s?….
rooskies have killed thousands of civilians during their imperialistic offensive in ukraine.
how many civilians did america kill in iraq? if it was up to me i’d nuke the nazi sympathizers in kiev. but tell me stanley how many civilians did the americans kill since ww2?!
i think you meant ukrop killed ethnic russian civilians since 2014 and the number back then was 15k. russia on the other hand only attacks military targets unlike ukronazis that you support with your tax money. you actually have blood on your hands and one day this will come back to bite you in the ass.
ukronazis hate their own national infrastructure. candle power it shall be. likewise, find a stray horse to tame…
really horrofying that car hit on the move and totally destroyed by ukronazi nato artillery.
