The Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Belarus has stated that it will send 5 battalion tactical groups to the border with Ukraine to replace the military currently stationed there. At the same time, the agency denies that this is part of the preparations for the war on the side of the Russian Federation.
Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Belarus has stated.
The Chief of the General Staff of Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Belarus, First Deputy Minister of Defense Major General Viktor Gulevich said that currently there are five battalion tactical groups on the southern border of Belarus together with border guards - "in order to prevent various nationalist armed groups from entering the Republic of Belarus from the side of Ukraine, illegal delivery of weapons, ammunition, and explosives ".
According to him, these servicemen "perform exploration, patrols, protection of objects and defense on-road routes".
"It is also planned to replace them with five battalion tactical groups in the near future. The units, which have fulfilled their undercover vice operation at the state border, will return to their permanent deployment points… The movement of troops doesn't have anything to do with the training and, moreover, the participation of the Belarusian military in a special military operation on the territory of Ukraine. I can assure my relatives and friends that our Armed Forces perform tasks to ensure the military security of Belarus only on its own territory, " - the Chief of the General Staff of Belarus said.
According to the BBC news, the corpses of Russian servicemen are taken from Ukraine to Mozyr, Belarus, where they are stored in a morgue outside the refrigerator, and then taken away in an unknown direction.
Yesterday, the head of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov stated that Russia is preparing a series of bloody provocations to force the leadership of Belarus to war against Ukraine. He urged Belarusians not to allow the Kremlin to destroy their country's future. On the same day, the Russian Federation conducted an armed provocation to justify Belarus' involvement in the war: two Russian Armed Forces planes attacked a village in the Brest region.
