Belarus Ensures Peace at Ukraine Border Amid Rising Tensions

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko assured that there will be no clashes on the Belarus-Ukraine border. This statement follows Belarus's deployment of additional air defense forces to protect critical infrastructure in response to increased Ukrainian drone activity.

Belarus will not allow any clashes on the border with Ukraine, Belarusian state-run Belta news agency reported on Tuesday citing Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko. "I guarantee you that we will not allow any clashes on the border with Ukraine. There won't be any," Lukashenko said.

Last week, Belarus announced that it had deployed additional air defence forces to its border with Ukraine to protect "critical infrastructure facilities" due to increased Ukrainian drone activity in the area.
