According to British intelligence, Russia is having difficulties with the training of mobilized reservists and conscripts for urgent service, the territory of Belarus is used for training, reports the Ministry of Defense of Great Britain.

As stated in the message, now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are "already working at the limit of their capabilities", trying to provide military training for approximately 300 thousand mobilized, the situation will be further complicated by the annual fall conscription that began on November 1, which is expected to lead to additional recruitment 120,000 troops.

As noted by British intelligence, recently mobilized conscripts are likely to have minimal or no training at all.

"Experienced officers and instructors were deployed to combat operations in Ukraine, and some of them are likely to have died during the conflict.

Russian troops are conducting exercises in Belarus due to the lack of instructors, ammunition and equipment in Russia.

Deploying forces with little or no training provides little additional offensive combat potential," British intelligence believes.

Ukrainian General Staff: Russia's military units are being replenished in Belarus at the expense of mobilized

Belarus continues to support the aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, receiving and deploying Russian soldiers and providing training grounds for them, according to the morning summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for November 5.

"It is known that on the territory of the Republic of Belarus, the units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are overstaffed at the expense of mobilized troops arriving from the territory of Russia.

Actions on combat training and organization of these units will continue for about two to three weeks," the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces stated.

In September, the Belarusian authorities announced that the country would create a joint grouping of troops with Russia.

The reason is "the need to counter NATO's aggressive intentions and ensure defense capabilities."

Soon after that, echelons with Russian soldiers and equipment, mostly armored KamAZs for transporting soldiers, began to arrive in Belarus.

The exact number of Russians who arrived in Belarus is unknown.

According to Ukrainian intelligence, it can be up to 20 thousand people.

Other sources speak of 3,200 people.

The photos published by the Belarusian Ministry of Defense from the meeting of the Russian echelons show that the Russians are arriving without heavy equipment (tanks and armored infantry vehicles).

Meanwhile, tanks and other armored vehicles, together with ammunition, are being actively exported to Russia from Belarus itself.
