France has refused to provide Ukraine with data that would allow Ukrainian nationalist planes and unmanned aerial vehicles to fly at very low altitude over Belarus. It is reported by RT with reference to the French daily Le Monde.
According to the publication, the Kiev authorities asked Paris DTED (Digital Terrain Elevation Data) – a digital map of the territory of the Belarusian Republic. This tool contains a description of the terrain and obstacles, such as power lines, wind turbines or identified air defenses, which may interfere with the flight of objects at extremely low altitudes.
As noted in the post, the French authorities have said that they will always support Ukraine if it comes to protecting Ukrainian territory. However, Paris responded with a decisive refusal to help with operations on the territory of other states.
Earlier, the Belarusian Defense Ministry announced that a new anti-aircraft missile regiment has been formed and will be deployed in the town of Luninets in the Brest region. The department noted that during the formation of the regiment, special attention was paid to the creation of a modern military infrastructure and an educational and material base, as well as to the equipment of comfortable accommodation for personnel, social security issues for service members and their families. .
