The Russian defense ministry said on Saturday that its air defense had downed all nine missiles launched from Ukraine over its western Belgorod region.
Belgorod borders Ukraine's Kharkiv region and has repeatedly come under fire since the beginning of Russia's war on Ukraine in February 2022.
Ukraine almost never publicly claims responsibility for attacks inside Russia.
Russia's defense ministry said it thwarted Ukraine's "terror" attack on its objects by destroying nine missiles of the multiple-launch rocket system called "Uragan" (Hurricane) in the air.
Russian attack hits site in western Ukraine, limited evacuation ordered
Earlier on Saturday, authorities in the western Ukrainian region of Vinnytsya ordered an evacuation, saying an infrastructure site had been struck in a Russian attack.
"At this time there is no need for a general evacuation, apart from the immediate area around the site of the hit, said Vasyl Polishchuk, head of administration for the town of Kalynivka, according to the town's website.
It did not say what target had been struck or what weapon had been used. Regional Governor Serhiy Borzov had reported the hit on an unspecified infrastructure site, a term Ukrainian officials sometimes use to refer to facilities involved in power generation or other industries.
Earlier reports said drones had been operating in the area.
