At least 10 Russian Shahed one-way attack drones breached Belarusian airspace from the territory of Ukraine on the night of November 10 and also returned to Russia via its territory.

This was reported by the Belarusian Hajun watchdog monitoring project, Ukrinform reports.

According to the platform, the drones passed through the "Belarusian corridor" en route Slavutych-Prypiat, flew from Chornobyl and Loyevo and toward the Mozyr district.

Some of the unmanned aerial vehicles later made a U-turn over Belarus and flew in the opposite direction. Thus, one of the drones returned to Chernihiv region of Ukraine and flew back into Belarus already in the Gomel district before heading to Russia from there.
