Franak Viačorka @franakviacorka · 2h Today, the residents of 8 Belarusian cities have heard the noises of explosions. Still, there is no information on what it was. At the same time, there are reports of the missile shelling of the Ukrainian city of Sarny, right across the border with the Brest region of Belarus.
Putin has been insisting every more strongly that Lukashenko send the Belarusian army into Ukraine to augment the Russian attack.
There are reports that Belarusian units ordered to the border have mutinied. Also, that Russian officers have been placed in command over certain units in replacement of Belarusian officers. However, also that these units were supply and logistical units, not combat units.
Lukashenko has been dancing around this request by Putin, so far resisting, his latest position was that the Belarusian is need within Belarus in case the Ukrainian Army decides to attack into Belarus.
