Russia has accused Ukraine over explosions which reportedly killed three people in the city of Belgorod, near the border with Ukraine.
The regional governor said the blasts hit dozens of residential buildings and air defences had been activated.
The Kremlin said that Sunday’s attack had been a deliberate attempt by Ukrainian forces to target civilians.
Ukraine dismissed the claim, saying the Russians had lied about similar incidents in the past.
