Belarus

 , as part of the training, the Defense Forces of Ukraine once again rehearsed the procedure in case of an escalation of the situation. 

This was reported on the official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.

It is noted that the reserves of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine were the first to move towards the state border, followed by the Armed Forces and the National Guard.

Fighters and equipment practiced interaction during the transition to the defense, actions to block a certain area to prevent the advance of the aggressor's troops, detection of saboteurs, adjusters, and other enemy elements. 

The participants of the exercises trained to perform tasks together, both at positions and roadblocks that were set up in advance, as well as occupying the defense, deploying control posts in the designated area.

"All units must be one strong fist, so that our state remains our state, strengthens, repels any aggressor, no matter where he comes from," stressed the deputy chief of the border detachment, Colonel Oleksandr Sereda.

We will remind that the Belarusian dictator Oleksandr Lukashenko expressed his

readiness to help the occupiers

, but he is in no hurry to throw his army into battle.
