A woman walks past a bus stop in Belgorod, Russia, on Thursday, Jan. 25, 2024. Hundreds of bus stops in the city near the border with Ukraine have been reinforced with blocks of concrete and sandbags to protect them from rocket strikes following the Dec. 30 attack on the city that killed 25 and injured 109. Attacks like those on Belgorod are dealing a heavy blow to President Vladimir Putin's attempts to reassure Russians that life in the country is largely untouched by the nearly 2-year-old conflict.
