on october 4, local time, belarusian president lukashenko stated that when he took a special plane to visit the country’s brest region on the 3rd, he discovered two drones in the domestic airspace during the flight. lukashenko emphasized that the belarusian air defense system will shoot down all drones that intrude into the airspace, regardless of which party they belong to.according to a report by ria novosti on october 4, belarusian president lukashenko said that online news about the discovery of an unidentified drone in his country’s airspace while he was riding a helicopter was not worrying. lukashenko said that the helicopter was flying normally at that time, so he "didn't sweat."
lukashenko also said that his work trip was delayed by one hour due to bad weather. as for the drones, that's a presidential security service issue. in this case, the security agency should have tracked where the drone went and how his helicopter flew.the belarusian president also stressed that ukraine and russia are purchasing drones in large quantities, but learning how to fly them is an equally important issue. therefore, in the hands of inexperienced people or under the influence of electronic warfare tools, the drone will lose its direction. lukashenko pointed out that this is how they flew into belarus and were shot down.the report also stated that lukashenko said: "there have been several situations like this. we shot down many aircraft. we don't care whether it is russian or ukrainian." he said that belarus began to solve these problems at the expert level, but not made public: such an agreement exists with both russia and ukraine.furthermore, lukashenko admitted that he was surprised when belarusian opposition forces abroad began spreading information about drones flying towards his helicopter. he said it was a "dirty little trick and provocation."
"it must be understood that we are on the front line: very close, and the war is happening just outside the fence. so, my main task is to prevent belarus from being dragged into the war," he said.the belarusian president pointed out that for this reason, minsk has remained silent on the matter. but if it backfires, he has to respond.
