According to the available information, a significant amount of weapons and military equipment arriving to Belarus from the Russian Federation for training purposes has been removed from long-term storage and requires maintenance. It is also known that Belarusian servicemen take an active part in maintenance works.

There is a tendency for the deterioration of morale and the psychological state of the Russian personnel. Thus, among the soldiers of the 127th separate intelligence brigade stationed in temporarily occupied Sevastopol, the idea of ending the war under any conditions is spreading.

During the past 24 hours, Ukrainian Air Force launched 17 air strikes on the concentrations of enemy troops, and 3x air strikes against russian anti-aircraft missile systems.

At the same time, Ukrainian troops shot down 3 Russian helicopters (Ka-52, Mi-24, and Mi-8), and 3 Orlan-10 reconnaissance UAVs.

Ukrainian missile and artillery units attacked 7 areas of enemy troops and military equipment concentration and 1 fuel warehouse.
