Wargame: Belarus soldiers ‘regain’ village from separatists


According to the legend of the military exercises held at Lepelski training ground, illegal armed formations seized Zhilin, a maneuver settlement, in order to win over its civilian population.

“The representatives of the Armed Forces and the Ministry of Internal Affairs were to negotiate taking non-combatants from the zone. In case of not coming to terms with separatists, our forces were expected to carry out a mopping-up operation and block the town,” the Belarusian newspaper ‘To The Glory of Motherland’ reports.

Defense Minister Andrey Raukou observed the joint actions of units of the Belarusian Army and internal troops.
