JAKARTA - Russia's emergency ministry declared a federal-level state of emergency in the Belgorod region, which borders Kursk.

The situation in the area is still complex and tense. As a result of the terrorist attack by the Ukrainian armed group in the Belgorod area, houses and infrastructure were damaged, there were people who were killed and injured," said Head of the Ministry, Alexander Kurenkov.

Russia has again evacuated thousands more people from its border areas after Ukraine said its troops advanced further into the country through intense attacks.

The biggest attack on Russia's sovereign territory since World War Two came on August 6 as thousands of Ukrainian troops broke through Russia's western border that humiliated top Russian military officials.

Supported by drones, heavy artillery, and tanks, Ukrainian units built the world's largest nuclear power plant and fighting is underway along the 18 km (11 miles) front line within Russian territory on Thursday, August 15.

Reported by Reuters, Acting governor of Kursk, Alexei Smirnov, said residents in the Glushkov district of 20,000 people were being evacuated.

Reportedly 200,000 people have so far been evacuated from border areas, according to Russian data.
