Claim 9: “The Ukrainian armed forces have attacked Russia’s Belgorod Region nearly 100 times over the past 24 hours”
DISPUTED
One web search result explicitly matches the claim of 99 attacks in 24 hours. However, another web search result reports 52 attacks in 24 hours, and a third reports a different outcome (1 killed, 5 injured) for a different date (June 23). The specific number '99' is contradicted by other reports of the same region's daily activity.
