We have been informed that the military-political command of the Russian Federation is planning a major provocation on the Ukraine-Belarus border in the near future. Vladimir Solovyov, a prominent Russian propagandist, is to be sent to Belarus to cover the event. On March 11, a TV and radio bridge and a live broadcast from the scene are planned to be organized for Russian propaganda media. Several groups of Russians are arriving in Belarus for this purpose, and it is believed that the occupiers' plans include the threat of destruction of infrastructure and potential civilian casualties. The goal of the provocation is to generate negative public opinion towards Ukraine among Belarusian citizens and to ensure that the country's armed forces fully participate in the war on the side of Russia. We would like to remind you that Ukraine is not conducting any military operations on the territory of Belarus.

Today, the Kremlin media has spread another false claim - that the SBU was planning a terrorist attack in the area known as Transnistria. The Security Service of Ukraine has responded to this. They have stated that any claims made by the so-called Ministry of State Security of the Transnistrian Peoples Republic regarding the SBU's involvement in a terrorist attack should be seen as nothing more than a provocation orchestrated by the Kremlin. The Security Service of Ukraine is urging people not to take seriously the lies that Russia is spreading in order to destabilize the area that it is actually occupying and controlling, and to not believe the accusations against Ukraine.

A state of emergency has been declared in Ukraine in response to the launch of a possible Kinzhal hypersonic missile, which cannot be intercepted by our air defense. Everyone should take cover.

Observers have reported that five Russian VKS helicopters (four Mi-24s and one Mi-8) took off from the Machulishchi airfield today and landed at the Luninets airfield, which is closer to the border of Belarus and Ukraine. Additionally, another Mi-8 helicopter was seen heading towards the Lepelsky training ground. It is too soon to speculate whether this is a sign of a relocation of a group of Russian VKS helicopters closer to the border with Ukraine, as it could be a training flight with a landing at another airfield. The situation is being monitored closely.
