Ukraine attack for the first time inside Russian territory and set huge oil tank fire
A Ukrainian helicopters appeared to have hit a temporary Russian military encampment outside Belgorod, in Russia’s village of Krasny Oktyabr, about 40 miles from the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.
Regional Gov. Vyacheslav Gladkov said there were no casualties, but an emergency service worker told Tass that four Russian soldiers were injured.
Video posted online from two local Belgorod news outlets appeared to show ammunition blowing up, but the source of the explosion could not be immediately confirmed outside of Tass Russian news agency.
If verified, the strike would apparently be the first on a military target inside Russia and that wounded soldiers.
On the video: CCTV video of the reported Ukrainian helicopter attack looks like rockets from Mi-24(s) striking the fuel facility inside Belgorod, Russia, across the border from Ukraine.
