Russia said more than 70 attackers have been killed in the region and the remnants of their units pushed back into Ukrainian territory after two days of fighting. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said:"It is no secret for us that more and more equipment is being delivered to Ukraine's armed forces."It is no secret that this equipment is being used against our own military.

Two groups operating in Ukraine, the Russian Volunteer Corps and Freedom of Russia Legion, have claimed responsibility. The US State Department said it was"sceptical" about the veracity of the reports and added it does not"enable or encourage" Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory.
