The governor of Russia’s western Bryansk region stated border guards and security personnel had thwarted an effort by a Ukrainian sabotage squad to cross into Russia.

Russia has routinely reported Ukrainian border sabotage attempts this year, including sending helicopters to put down a dramatic cross-border invasion in the Belgorod region in May.

On Telegram, Bryansk governor Alexander Bogomaz wrote, “Employees of the FSB border force of Russia and units of the Russian defence ministry thwarted an attempt to penetrate the territory of the Russian Federation by a Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group”.

The Bryansk region is located in western Russia, bordering Russia’s ally Belarus and Ukraine.

During Moscow’s offensive in Ukraine, it, like several other Russian border regions, has been subjected to continuous Ukrainian attacks and shelling.
