More than 50 aircraft, 10 helicopters and 2 An-124s are concentrated at Machulischy airport. Transport planes constantly take off from the airports of Baranovichi and Machulischy in the direction of Ukraine. The Belarusian command brought some of its units to combat readiness.

Conducting an offensive in Ukraine, the Russian occupiers use methods of warfare prohibited by International Humanitarian Law: they seize social infrastructure facilities, dress Ukrainian military, police and State Emergency Service uniforms, sabotage groups of special forces use ambulances and police cars of ambulance stations; terrorists occupy premises of children camps and schools, enemy artillery and MLRS are deployed on sports grounds. In Kiev, three ambulances were recently spotted with the invaders' conventional markings. Russian Kafirs deployed MSTA-C artillery units in a residential area in the Genicheskiy district of the Kherson region. In the direction of Makarov - Kiev a column is moving, the enemy has placed children and women on the armored vehicles for cover.
