Further military exercises in Belarus
The Ministry of Defence of Belarus also informed that temporary restrictions on civilian transport may occur due to the movement of military equipment.
In recent years, especially after the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine began, military exercises have been regularly conducted in Belarus. A “comprehensive combat readiness test” was reported in October 2023.
