Explosions were heard in Belgorod, Russia, on 30 December, and wreckage fell in the city centre after the work of Russian air defence.

Source: source of Ukrainska Pravda in security services

Details: It is noted that the Ukrainian Defence Forces struck Russian military facilities in Belgorod Oblast, but unprofessional actions of Russian air defence caused wreckage to fall in the city centre.

According to the Russians, 10 fires broke out in the city after the explosions. An air-raid warning was issued and people were urged to find shelter.

Russia didn't bomb itself. Ukraine launched a revenge attack as they claimed themselves. Whether further explosions happened due to air defense is irrelevant for the overall picture which should be reflected in the headline. The claimed air defense incidents would not have happened without the retaliation in the time frame of this specific event.

Ukraine launched a revenge attack as they claimed themselves.

Yep, that's called "war".

But like I said... find me a source that actually says anything otherwise and I'm sure we'll all listen. Otherwise, unless you were there yourself and saw where the missile launched from, your opinion is irrelevant.
