DEFENSE
Combat readiness inspections of military units in Belarus have begun, as announced by Defense Minister Viktor Khrenin. The inspections aim to evaluate personnel's readiness to execute assigned tasks, including conscription procedures and equipment deployment.
The process will be conducted unexpectedly to ensure genuine preparedness. A comprehensive exercise will follow, focusing on new tactics and the use of unmanned aerial vehicles. These inspections are separate from a larger-scale inspection initiated by President Lukashenko on January 16, which is ongoing and will last until spring.
