Belarus says Ukraine amassing troops at border amid incursion into Russia

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko says Kyiv has stationed more than 120,000 soldiers along its border with Belarus, the country’s state news agency reported, as fighting continues amid Ukraine’s incursion into Russia’s Kursk region.
Lukashenko, a staunch ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, said on Sunday that Minsk had deployed nearly a third of its armed forces along the entire border in response to the Ukrainian deployment, BelTA reported. Kyiv did not immediately respond to the claims.

Al Jazeera’s have two correspondents covering these developments. Dorsa Jabbari reports from Moscow and Alex Gatapolus reports from Kyiv.

  1. Lukashenko AKA Putins big dumb boyfriend……..is so stupid…. Ukraine has no desire to invade Russia or Belarusia…….they simply want Putin to go home and Lukashenko join him his bunker much like a modern day Eva Braun. Try and un-see that.

  2. If the Great Potato King doesn't say this, the P Fertilizer King might be scolded.
    So the Potato King should just say that he can't move because he can see Polish soldiers at the border.

  3. Bruh US and NATO want war; dont expect any peace treaties. Remember Japan had offered the Hull Note Proposal just 12 days before they attacked Pearl Harbor.

  4. The Belarusian president's statement is weird, to say the least. How in the world can Ukraine be expected to NOT have military forces near its border with Belarus when a part of the Russian invasion of Ukraine was launched from… Belarus? Is Lukashenko trying to start a false-flag operation to justify soon-to-come military movements on the part of Belarus?

  5. Belarus would fall without much fight and its people would benefit greatly. Unfortunately I highly doubt this would happen. No great benefit.,

  6. Belarus the world 🌎 keep laughing at all yours comments. So sad the your country is not a country, just another Russia puppet 🐶

  7. This confused Lukashenko is saying that Ukraine troops has been in the their border.

    How can Ukraine can do that. ZELENSKY is not interested with Belarus.

    What Ukraine 🇺🇦 needed is to maintained the control of its troops in the war torn region especially in the Kursk region to be able to defend its troops if Russia 🇷🇺 will retake it.. 😢😢😮😂

  8. Russia and its allias are starting to fill the pressure, even if Russia uses nuclear weapons they're done. Because the U.S.A and its allies including NATO will annihilate them.
