The shelling of Ukraine, occupied Ukrainian territories and Russia

In 2022, they were included in Russia along with the occupied parts of the Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions of Ukraine. . Later, the Russian military also participated in the conflict. And not only in the territory of Donbass: they fired at Ukrainian settlements from the territory of Russia.
