The Armed Forces "concentrated" up to 114 thousand soldiers near the Belarusian border: what they say in the RB

Khrenin noted that about 17,000 people were involved in protecting the border. Belarusians are also allegedly observed by many provocations from the Armed Forces with disruption of airspace, in particular with ranges of unmanned aerial vehicles. "They (Ukrainians, ed. ) Her (border, ed. ) Are transformed into a fortress. All roads, destroyed bridges, railway tracks are fully replaced, anti -tank fences are being built," Viktor Khrenin said.
