According to the monitoring group "Belarusian Gayun", on August 9, 2024, no drones (UAVs) were detected during flights of the Belarusian Armed Forces

There were no missile launches from the [Belarusian] Su-30 fighter jet or the Mi-24 helicopter. From which it follows that the statements of the self-proclaimed Lukashenko are ordinary nonsense, - said in "Belarusian Gayun".

Lukashensko claimed that Ukrainian drones entered Belarusian airspace as a justification for sending forces to the border of Ukraine. The military deployment takes place after Ukraine launched a counter-attack against russia in the Kursk region.

It is believed that Lukashensko is trying to assist Putin by attempting to create a distraction for Ukrainian forces.

Ukrainian forces have not reported any increase in activities near the border with Belarus at this time.
