Russia’s Belgorod region bordering Ukraine offered to move some residents from its capital to safety on Friday, after Kyiv’s forces pounded the city with intense bouts of shelling.
The offer came a day after overnight shelling wounded at least two people and knocked out glass from high-rise buildings, prompting panic among residents.
“I see several appeals on social media where people write: We are scared, help us get to a safe place,” Belgorod region governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said in a video message.
“Of course we will. We have already moved several families,” he added.
