“We mostly get news from the internet and TV. There’s a lot of contradictory information.” Russians react to the Ukrainian incursion.
How are Russians reacting to the dramatic Ukrainian incursion in Kursk region? A hundred miles from Moscow I gauge the mood in a small Russian town. Producer @LizaShuvalova @BBCNews

It's 24 yrs since the Kursk submarine sank The disaster had all the traits of Putin’s rule: instinctive dishonesty, wariness of the West & chilling disregard for human life 23 men survived the blast only to suffocate as Russia 1st covered up the disaster then bungled the rescue
