The National Anti-Terrorism Committee (NAC) of Russia on Saturday initiated a counterterrorism operation (CTO) regime across the Belgorod, Bryansk, and Kursk regions in response to recent security threats, APA reports.
The committee said that this measure was enacted on Saturday to protect citizens and prevent potential terrorist acts following an unprecedented attempt by Ukraine to destabilize several regions in Russia.
The move comes after a Ukrainian attack in the Kursk region, which has resulted in civilian casualties and the destruction of residential buildings and other civilian infrastructure.
The NAC emphasized that the CTO's legal framework includes the implementation of necessary measures and temporary restrictions under Article 11 of the Federal Law "On Combating Terrorism." These measures are aimed at ensuring the safety of the population, maintaining public order, and enhancing the protection of critical infrastructure.
