Zelensky: Belarus-based drone control relay systems suspended operation
June 24, Pozirk. Belarus-based relay systems that facilitated Russian drone attacks have suspended operation, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said.
“Whether they dismounted them or not, I, frankly speaking, don’t know yet. But we are working on it and I am closely following it and receive daily reports. The fact is that the relay systems are not operational now,” Suspilne quoted him as saying.
He added that Commander in Chief Oleksander Syrskyi and intelligence reported that the relay systems had not been operating since June 22.
The Belarusian media outlet Flagshtok reported with reference to its sources that Russian attack drones have not been flying along the Belarusian-Ukrainian border for three days.
