Belarus Accuses Ukraine Of Attacking Targets Inside Belarussian Territory

[Webster]

(The Guardian) The president of Belarus has claimed, without providing evidence, that Ukraine attempted to strike military facilities on Belarusian territory earlier this week.

Reuters, citing the state-run Belta news agency, reported that Alexander Lukashenko said Ukrainian armed forces tried to strike facilities in Belarus three days ago, but that the missiles were intercepted. He claimed Ukraine was attempting to provoke Belarus, and that his country does not plan to intervene in the conflict.

Belarus, a close ally of Russia, has supported the war, allowing Moscow to use the territory to wage its war against Ukraine. Vladimir Putin recently pledged to send Belarus nuclear-capable missiles in “the coming months” and offered to provide upgraded warplanes.

Last week, Ukraine said that missiles from Belarus hit a border region in its territory.

The Ukrainian military did not immediately comment on Lukashenko’s claims.

Lukashenko is full of BS. Every single word he says is a propaganda, a manufactured lie intended to make him and his country look like a victim, like the rest of the world is conspiring against him. Typical paranoid dictator with a delusion of grandia, no different than Putin.
