The Commander-in-Chief was informed about the current situation and about the inspection of the Air Forces and the Air Defense Forces. The President watched the training along with the military. The check of the forces lasted more than an hour. The troops and equipment performed excellently in the air. All targets were detected and hit. Alexander Lukashenko closely monitored the work of the military, delving into all the details of ensuring combat readiness. Everyone present gave a detailed answer. The Commander-in-Chief praised the ability to repel any potential threats posed by the enemy from the air. The Belarusian sky is under reliable protection. The situation on the border forces military to be constantly on alert. Service is carried out on the ground and in the air 24/7. Particular attention is paid to air defense. The militarization of the Baltic states and Poland carries risks for our security: the concentration of NATO troops near the Belarusian borders still remains high. The military monitors all types of threats, the defense minister emphasized. Moreover, the methods of conducting combat operations are changing: today preference is given to drones. That is why there is such attention to air defense forces. A detailed summary will be given a little later on how the air border of Belarus is protected. The final results of the surprise inspection of the Armed Forces will be reported to the Commander-in-Chief.
