RUSSIA has shockingly claimed Ukrainians have flooded over the border and are holding hostages amid fears Moscow is staging a false flag operation.
Security forces in Russia today claimed they were seeking to “destroy” an alleged Ukrainian sabotage group that had broken across the state border.
Moscow claimed hostages were being held in Bryansk region, and that a group of up to 50 Ukrainian fighters were inside Russia, with Kyiv armoured vehicles at the frontier.
Other Russian outlets claimed 80 Ukrainians were involved.
Yet there was no immediate proof of a Ukrainian incursion amid what appeared a flood of reports on Russian pro-war media outlets.
As the situation unfolded it was unclear if this was a false flag operation staged by Russia as suggested by some Ukrainian Telegram outlets.
But Vladimir Putin is set to hold an emergency meeting of his security council amid claism of an alleged incursion.
The FSB said: “In the Klimovskiy district of the Bryansk region, the Russian Federal Security Service [FSB] and attached forces of the Russian Ministry of Defence are taking action to eliminate armed Ukrainian nationalists who have violated the state border.”
The first claim of an incursion came from Bryansk governor Alexander Bogomaz who said: “A DRG [sabotage-reconnaissance group] sneaked from Ukraine into the territory of Klimovsky District in the village of Lyubechane,” said Bryansk governor Alexander Bogomaz.
“The saboteurs fired at a moving car.
“As a result of the shooting, one resident was killed, a ten-year-old child was wounded. The child has been taken to the hospital, he is receiving all the necessary assistance.”
Later reports said there was shelling of villages Lomakovka and Sushany.
The Russian media suddenly reported hostage-taking in Sushany and Lyubechany.
Reports of a school hostage taking proved false.
One claim of 100 hostages appeared to be exaggerated.
