According to the information I was briefed on by the Head of the State Border Guard Service, as well as intelligence, since June 22 the corresponding retransmitters have ceased operation on the territory of Belarus. Whether they have been dismantled or not – I honestly don’t know yet, but we are working on it, and I am following very closely and receiving daily briefings.
