The Freedom of Russia Legion, the Russian Volunteer Corps, and the Siberian Battalion announced their intention to “carry out fire strikes on military positions in the Russian cities of Belgorod and Kursk” in a joint statement on Telegram on March 13.
Russian forces have been attacking Ukrainian cities from Belgorod Oblast on a daily basis, taking up positions among residential buildings.
“The shelling of Ukraine from Belgorod Oblast must stop!”
The statement urges the local authorities to evacuate the residents of the two Russian oblasts to ensure their safety.
The Freedom of Russia Legion also showed how they repelled the Russian army’s attack from the rear.
On March 12, the three units in which Russian citizens are fighting crossed the border into Russia, announcing the start of an operation to “liberate the Russian Federation from dictatorship.” According to preliminary data, it is taking place in Belgorod and Kursk oblasts of the Russian Federation.
On the evening of March 12, the RVC announced a second entry into Russia to “bring closer the moment of death” of Putin and the entire “Kremlin regime.”
The Russian Defense Ministry announced the “neutralization of 234 Ukrainian saboteurs” in Belgorod and Kursk oblasts.
On March 13, the Freedom of Russia Legion announced that it had taken control of a part of the village of Tiotkino in Kursk Oblast on the border with Ukraine.
On the same day, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin claimed that the raid was an attempt to disrupt the so-called “elections” in Russia and to “get a trump card” in the upcoming peace talks.
