Ukrainian military warns Belarusians of possible Russia false-flag attack to 'drag Belarus into the war'
Ukraine's military command has released a new video address to the people of Belarus. The three-minute-long, Russian-language clip was posted on the Ukrainian General Staff's Facebook page.
In the video, representatives of the Ukrainian Armed Forces say Russia is preparing a false-flag attack on Belarusian territory that may involve nuclear facilities. According to Ukraine’s military, Russia’s goal is to “drag Belarus into the war with Ukraine by whatever means necessary.” The military officials call on Belarusians to “monitor all suspicious activity.”
Your government has already partially violated the constitution by allowing Russian military aggression against Ukraine by using your territory, infrastructure, and resources. Don’t let them drag you into the war any more.
