Ukraine has now entered a fierce stage of war against Russian invasion. Russians are advancing on every front, while building three defence lines on the occupied territories in the South.
Although the global support of Ukraine is obvious, it’s military needs are not fully satisfied. Ukraine still desperately neads heavy weaponry, especially MLRSs to liberate its cities.#ArmUkraineNOW #StandWithUkraine #UkraineWillWin

Russian prepares a provocation in Mozyr to involve Belarus in war against Ukraine
The Russians are planning provocations on Belarusian infrastructure and civilian objects to draw the country into the war against Ukraine.
This is reported by Ukrainian Defence Intelligence.
The information obtained by Ukrainian intelligence indicates possible provocations. Several Russian sabotage groups arrived in Mozyr.
They include GRU personnel and mercenaries from private military companies.
Defence Intelligence noted that these groups plan terrorist attacks in Belarus.
“A scenario similar to the ignition of the war in Chechnya is on its way. Back then the Russian special services organized several explosions in Ryazan residential buildings, accusing mythical “Chechen militants” of it. Thus, the Russian GRU now plans to conduct a series of artillery and missile strikes on the Mozyr petroleum refinery, civilian infrastructure facilities, and residential areas. There will be further explosions of residential buildings, hospitals, and schools during the shelling,” the statement said.
This can create an excuse for Lukashenko to enter the war against Ukraine. Having this information, officers of the Belarusian Army began to evacuate their families from Mozyr.
Mozyr is a city in the Gomel region of Belarus.
The Russian military has repeatedly used the city to launch missile strikes at Ukraine. Russian equipment and troops’ presence is also frequently recorded in the city.

Belarusian railway workers report that the amount of ammunition is so large that the arsenal`s personnel can not load them on their own:
“The number of ammunition is so large that loads by their own forces can not be organized, so the military from other units were dispatched to help them,” the report said.
