The governor of the Russian city of Belgorod has announced that 9,000 children will be evacuated from the city after a week's long shelling killed over a dozen people. Vyacheslav Gladkov said the first group of 1,200 children will be evacuated on March 22.
Belgorod, which borders Ukraine, is one of many Russian cities that have come under intense bombardment from Ukraine in recent weeks. The shelling has killed multiple people and destroyed properties across the region.

Meanwhile, Russian state news agency RIA has reported that Admiral Alexander Moiseev has replaced Nikolai Yevmenov as the new head of the Russian navy after a series of humiliating defeats in the Black Sea
