Yesterday, we sent four people (two adults and two children) by train to Moscow. In a couple of hours, they will have already arrived in Moscow, they are being awaited in healthcare institutions of the Russian Federation, where they will be given maximum medical assistance," Gladkov said on Telegram.

Meanwhile, UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said on Thursday, commenting on Ukraine's deadly shelling of Belgorod, that attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure must end.
