A US state department spokesman, Mathew Miller confirmed that they believe seen the images “circulating on social media and elsewhere” of American supplied weapons, but said they remain “sceptical at this time of the veracity of these reports.”
Miller added, it is up to Ukraine “to resolve how to conduct this war,” but Kyiv has denied any involvement in the attacks in the Belgorod region.
Russia’s Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu warned that Moscow will react “extremely harshly” if Ukraine sends any more of their fighters into the Russian Federation.
Shoigu told Ministry officials, “We will continue to respond to such actions by Ukrainian militants promptly and extremely harshly.”

1) The Russian government released this photo of the alleged Belgorod insurgents vehicles after a battle. I used to be a tow truck operator. This is staged. These vehicles didn’t crash into that trench. I’ll elaborate why⬇️ pic.twitter.com/vNJpH0qhqY

After Moscow blamed Ukraine for the attacks, two groups of the Freedom of Russia Legion and the Russian Volunteer Corps, claimed responsibility.
2) No gravel stuck in the tire tread. In fact, no dirt on the tires at all. This was loaded into that trench off a flatbed and carefully choreographed in space. Not even a low-budget war movie production would be this sloppy with realism. Let’s disappear to the next⬇️ pic.twitter.com/Ub3n0LaddR

The two groups announced their aims of “liberating” the Belgorod region, and the Freedom of Russia Legion was formed last spring.
According to their website this happened “out of Russians’ desire to fight against Putin’s armed gang” which is “officially recognised” by the Ukrainian military.
The statement reads, “We are fighting in full cooperation with the Armed Forces of Ukraine and under the leadership of the Ukrainian command.”
