On 11 April, Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh Oblasts all raised their terror alert system to "yellow", the second tier in a three-class system.[17][18] The Republic of Crimea and Krasnodar Krai raised their alert levels in certain districts.

On 1 June, the RVC and LSR launched another incursion in Belgorod Oblast, this time near the small town of Shebekino.[134]

Reactions[]

Russia[]

Schools in Bryansk Oblast were closed following the attack on 14 April and four regions in Russia increased their security measures.[27][135] In response to alleged shelling by Ukraine, Russia reportedly began reinforcing its border with Ukraine, including building defense lines and fortifications along the border of Belgorod, Kursk and Bryansk Oblasts with Ukraine.[136][137] A state of emergency was also declared on some villages and settlements along the border with Ukraine following repeated shelling attacks.[138]

On 15 April, Russia launched major missile strikes on the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in retaliation for the attacks.[28] The Russian attacks were the largest of their kind to take place since Russia aborted its offensive into Kyiv Oblast.[139] After the 5 December missile strikes, Russian forces launched a new wave of attacks against Ukrainian cities.[140] A missile reportedly fell on Moldova as a result of the attack.[141]

ISW reported that Russian forces could be preparing a large-scale false flag attack to gather popular support for the invasion, with Kremlin propagandists claiming that Ukraine is "preparing to invade" Belgorod Oblast.[142] A senior Ukrainian officer later said that Russia may attempt to escalate the situation on the border and claim "NATO and Ukrainian aggression", he cited recent fake news being spread in pro-Russian Telegram channels about "Ukrainian and NATO plans" to "Attack peaceful Russian and Belarusian territory", as well as recent construction of border defenses along Russian Oblasts bordering Ukraine, the Ukrainian General Staff also claimed that Russia could attempt to force Belarus into the war, and that "10-15 thousand Belarusian forces" were already on the border with Ukraine, citing reports of possible Reconnaissance missions conducted by Belarusian forces.[142]

In May 2023, Russia's Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev blamed the United States and Ukraine for the number of attacks in western Russia and said that "the terrorist attacks committed in Russia are accompanied by an information campaign prepared in advance in Washington and London, designed to destabilise the socio-political situation, and to undermine the constitutional foundations and sovereignty of Russia."[143]

Ukraine[]

Ukraine rejected the claims that it was responsible for the 14 April attacks, instead asserting that Russian intelligence services were trying to "carry out terrorist acts to whip up anti-Ukrainian hysteria" in the country.[144][27]

After the attack, the Security Service of Ukraine released what it claimed were intercepted conversations between Russian soldiers showing that Russia deliberately fired on the villages in order to blame Ukraine. One of the alleged soldiers refers to the Russian apartment bombings in 1999 where he says that the "same shit happened in the Chechen war. Apartments were blown up in Moscow, like they were terrorists. In fact, they are FSB officers."[145]

In response to accusations regarding the 13 April Bryansk border checkpoint incident by Russia's FSB security service, Ukrainian interior ministry advisor Anton Herashchenko said that something "fell and caught fire" at a Russian military facility, without explicitly confirming or denying Ukrainian responsibility.[22]

On 27 April 2022, Mykhailo Podolyak, advisor to Volodymyr Zelenskyy, commented on the recent incidents. Without directly admitting that Ukraine was responsible, he said that it was not possible to "sit out" the Russian invasion.

"And therefore, the disarmament of the Belgorod and Voronezh killers' warehouses is an absolutely natural process. Karma is a cruel thing."[146]
