Russia is preparing saboteurs in Belarus for further action on the territory of Ukraine – the General Staff

In the Volyn and Polissya areas, on the territory of the Republic of Belarus, the preparation of sabotage and reconnaissance groups by separate units of the RF Armed Forces for their further actions on the territory of Ukraine was noticed.
In addition, in the Seversky direction, in order to demonstrate the presence and restraint of the actions of the defense forces, the enemy holds separate units of the troops of the Western Military District in the border areas of Bryansk and Kursk regions.
In the Bakhmut direction, the occupiers fired at our positions with mortars, barrel and jet artillery near Mykolayivka, Berestovo, Pokrovsky, Kodema and New York.
The Armed Forces inflicted significant losses on the enemy in the area of the settlement of Pavlivka. After an unsuccessful assault, the occupiers withdrew.
With the support of aviation, the occupiers are trying to regain control of the village of Potemkin, but without success.
The blockade of the north-western part of the Black Sea continues.
In the temporarily occupied territories, the occupation authorities continue to carry out so-called “filtration” measures against local residents.
