"In order to ensure the security of the Republic of Belarus in the Southern direction, the forces of the special operations forces are deployed in three tactical directions," Viktor Gulevich, Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus said.
According to him, the Armed Forces of Ukraine allegedly concentrated a grouping near the borders of the Republic of Belarus with a total number of up to 20,000 people.
