President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that, according to Ukrainian intelligence, Belarus is completing the construction of roads and storage bases for ammunition and fuel near the border with Ukraine, which may indicate a potential expansion of aggression against Ukraine.
The Ukrainian President stated this on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.
“Separately, Oleh Luhovskyi (acting head of the Foreign Intelligence Service) reported on measures being carried out in Belarus, under obvious Russian influence, to prepare for a potential expansion of aggression against Ukraine. Along our state border in Belarus, the construction of road infrastructure and storage bases for ammunition and fuel and lubricants is nearing completion. These facilities have no purpose other than a military one. These are the border directions of Kobryn–Kovel, Ivanava–Manevychi, Luninets–Sarny, Rečyca–Korosten, and Homieĺ–Chernihiv. We know that Russian documents describe this specifically in the context of the tasks of the so-called ‘SVO’ (special military operation - ed.),” Zelensky wrote.
According to the President, Belarus has been sent the necessary signals regarding such activities, as well as other forms of cooperation with Russia that contribute to prolonging and expanding the war.
