Russia Planted Mines In A Hydroelectric Dam Zelensky Says

British intelligence said it was doubtful that Russia had deployed a significant number of additional troops, adding that the announcement was likely an attempt to persuade Ukraine to divert forces to guard its northern border. Friday’s report states: On October 14, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said that 70,000 Belarusian soldiers and up to 15,000 Russians would be involved in a new Russian-Belarusian Task Force. On October 15, Belarusian authorities released a video they claim shows the arrival of Russian troops in Belarus. However, to date it is unlikely that Russia has actually deployed a significant number of additional troops to Belarus. Russia is unlikely to be able to create combat-ready formations of the claimed size: its forces are tied up in Ukraine. The Belarusian military is likely to retain little ability to undertake complex operations. The announcement is likely an attempt to demonstrate Russia-Belarus solidarity and persuade Ukraine to divert forces to guard the northern border.”
