Russia has sent reserve troops to its southern Kursk region, bordering Ukraine, after up to 300 Ukrainian fighters attacked its border units on Tuesday, the Russian Defense Ministry said.
The regional governor said earlier that Russian forces thwarted a Ukrainian attempt to penetrate the border, but the situation remained "difficult."
There was no immediate comment from Ukraine on the border attacks against Russia.
