Russia Hates the Truth. News from Belgorod includes the fact that the region is under Ukrainian shelling "every day," and the Wagner group has set up a training camp in the Oblast

This week in Belgorod confirmed the failing region's steep decline since the beginning of the dictator Putin’s ill-fated war against Ukraine and freedom itself.

Belgorod Oblast is a microcosm of the failed Russian state and the Russian Federation’s descent into mob rule.

Some news from the last seven days includes:

• According to a live broadcast with the Oblast Governor, Vyacheslav Gladkov, certain districts in Belgorod, including Shebekinsky, are “under shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine every day." This has resulted in significant damage to infrastructure that is unable to be repaired due to a failing budget. Gladkov lamented that the federal government still hadn’t provided aid. “But now it has become difficult - there has been a sharp reduction in regional budget revenues. I hope that federal assistance will arrive soon,” the embattled governor said.

• The family of two brothers from Belgorod, who were serving with the Wagner terrorists and were killed by ZSU forces, have been denied financial assistance. Their sister from Volokonovka was forced to beg for funding, crying out, “I spent a lot of money to have my brothers brought to me. Funerals in Samara and Ryazan are expensive. I was denied compensation everywhere. Please help me…Why was I denied financial assistance everywhere?”

• The tentacles of the mercenary Wagner group are now fully entrenched in Belgorod Oblast with the opening of a training camp there and in neighboring Kursk Oblast as well. Yevgeny Prigozhin brought the would-be contract killers special hatchets to commemorate the opening of the facility to the north of Kharkiv.

• It has been announced that 103 million rubles from the Belgorod city budget are being spent to house kidnapped Ukrainians for the upcoming 2023 budget year.
