The Ukrainian Armed Forces do not rule out the possibility of Belarus joining Russia's war against Ukraine.

Oleksandr Hruzevych, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Ukrainian Ground Forces Command, said this at a briefing at the Ukraine Media Center, Ukrinform reports.

"There is a threat from Belarus, but respective measures have been taken and we are ready even if that happens. Relevant groups have already been identified, and we are ready for the worst-case scenario. The enemy has recently been launching tactical missiles and setting up logistics from Belarus," Hruzevych said.

In his opinion, the enemy will not be able to block the supply of aid from the West.

"They don't have enough forces. Today it is problematic. They can only use missiles. Measures have been taken to prevent this from happening, or, as a last resort, minimizing their actions," he added.
