Hrodna-based brigade deploys tactical group to state border for training

June 11, Pozirk. The 6th Detached Mechanized Brigade stationed in Hrodna has deployed a battalion tactical group to a border area for a drill, defense ministry’s press office said.
The group will practice defending the border and major thoroughfares and fortifying defense positions, the ministry noted.
Two weeks earlier, the same brigade deployed a battalion tactical group to an unspecified location for training in digging trenches and establishing firing positions.
Today’s deployment coincides with the second phase of a Belarusian-Russian joint tactical nuclear exercise announced today. It involves troops practicing the combat use of non-strategic nuclear weapons.
Belarus holds regular drills amid tension with the West over Russia’s war against Ukraine, in which Minsk supports the Kremlin.
