Belarus moving tanks to Ukraine border

Aug 12, 2024

Minsk [Belarus], August 12: Belarus has begun moving tanks to its border with Ukraine, the Defence Ministry in Minsk said on Sunday, after reportedly having shot down several Ukrainian combat drones in its airspace.
The ministry published a video on Telegram showing tanks being loaded onto rail transport carriages.
The units have been put on standby to carry out orders, it said.
It comes after Belarusian strongman Alexander Lukashenko ordered the reinforcement of troops in the south-eastern Gomel and Mazyr areas that border Ukraine to be able to react to potential provocations from the neighbouring country.
Lukashenko said on Saturday that his country's air defence had been put on full alert following the intrusion of what were believed to be 10 Ukrainian drones into the eastern part of the country in the Kastsyukovichy area.
He said Belarus shot down several of the Ukrainian aircraft, state media reported. The airspace intrusion was said to have occurred on Friday. (DPA)
