"According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the situation on the border remains difficult, but under control. Our military is carrying out planned work. I ask you to remain calm and trust only official sources of information," Gladkov wrote on Telegram. There was no immediate comment from Ukraine on Gladkov's claim.
