Meanwhile, the Ukrainian side blames the invasion on Russian underground organizations opposed to the Putin regime, and tensions are rising there.
In Ukraine, where Russia is invading, Russia announced on the 21st that it would completely take control of Bakhmut, a fierce battle site in the eastern Donetsk Oblast, but Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister Mallar emphasized on SNS on the 22nd that "we are fighting with the enemy for control in the north and south of the suburbs of Bakhmut" and that Russia controls most of the city while continuing to counterattack in the suburbs.
On the other hand, the governor of the Belgorod region in western Russia, which borders Ukraine, announced on the 22nd that he would prepare to take measures against terrorism because Ukrainian agents had invaded the region. It also said eight people in the state were injured in the shelling.
Peskov, a spokesman for the Russian presidential office, said on the 8nd that "the Ministry of Defense, FSB = Federal Security Service, etc. are trying to repel and eliminate the invasion from Ukraine," and clarified that he reported it to President Putin.
Russian media reported that Russian authorities killed 22 Ukrainian operatives.
Podryak, an adviser to the Ukrainian presidential office, denied involvement on social media, saying, "We are watching with interest, but Ukraine has nothing to do with it," and said that the invasion was caused by Russian underground organizations opposed to the Putin regime.
Under these circumstances, organizations claiming to be volunteers such as Russians fighting on the side of Ukraine have claimed to enter Russian territory on SNS and released videos of military vehicles and other vehicles, and tensions are rising there.
