October 8, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> At least four incursions by jet-powered drones into Belarusian territory have been recorded since October 4, Flagstok<\/em> says, citing Ukrainian monitoring data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the drones that entered Belarusian airspace on October 4 and 5 flew toward Mazyr in the Homiel region, while another crossed the region en route to Chornobyl in Ukraine. A similar incident occurred over the Homiel region early this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, Flagshtok<\/em> noted a significant increase in airspace violations by Russian attack drones, with at least 21 stray drones sighted in the Homiel region, up from seven in August. On August 18, a drone reportedly crashed and exploded near the Belarusian Steel Works in \u017d\u0142obin in the Homiel region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarusian authorities regularly test the public warning system, particularly in the southern part of the country, which faces frequent incursions by Russian drones targeting Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Minsk supported the Kremlin by allowing Russian troops to attack Ukraine from Belarusian territory on multiple occasions and by supplying arms to Moscow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
