The governor of the Belgorod region, Vyacheslav Gladkov, announced the closure of the entrance to the village of Poroz in connection with the introduction of a counter-terrorism operation (CTO) regime in the region. This decision was made after a video appeared online, allegedly showing Ukrainian military personnel on the territory of this locality.

According to Gladkov, the situation is under control and representatives of law enforcement agencies are currently engaged in clarifying all the circumstances of the incident. The introduction of the CTO regime provides for a number of operational measures aimed at ensuring security and preventing possible sabotage actions in the region.
