April 14, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> The 19th Detached Mechanized Brigade is returning to its base in Zas\u0142onava, Viciebsk region, after a live-fire exercise, the defense ministry reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brigade was deployed to training grounds in four regions earlier this week for three-day live-fire training observed by Defense Minister Viktar Chrenin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The country\u2019s defense ministry described the activities as a key stage of a comprehensive combat readiness exercise being conducted since March 11 in response to NATO\u2019s Steadfast Defender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visiting the western city of Hrodna on April 2, Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka said his government was \u201cpreparing for a war,\u201d and accused NATO neighbors of increasing spending on offensive weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steadfast Defender is NATO\u2019s multi-domain exercise, incorporating land, air, sea, cyber and space operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It involves deploying forces from North America and other parts of the Alliance to Europe. Over several months, complex multi-domain operations will be conducted across thousands of kilometers, thereby enhancing civil-military cooperation and national and collective resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exercise is strategically located in several key European countries, including Finland, Estonia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Sweden and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Events are taking place from late January to the end of May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
