VIDEO: Three killed in blasts in Russia's Belgorod
Explosions have killed three people and wounded four others in the Russian city of Belgorod, near the border with Ukraine, the region's governor has said.
The blasts damaged at least 11 apartment buildings and 39 houses, with five of these destroyed, Vyacheslav Gladkov said on the Telegram messaging app.
A 10-year-old child was reportedly among the injured.
The cause of the explosions is being investigated, but several Russian regions near the Ukrainian border have repeatedly accused the Ukrainian military of shelling civilian targets since Moscow began its invasion of Ukraine on February 24.
Kyiv does not usually comment on such accusations.
