Ukraine sees a high risk of an attack on the country’s western Volyn region being launched from Belarus, President Volodymyr Zelensky’s office said on Sunday, citing the military.
The Russian invasion mainly focused on the northern, southern and eastern areas of Ukraine, although missiles also hit the Yavoriv military base last week near the Polish border.
Russia and Belarus have so far not commented on the assessment of Zelensky’s presidential office.
It was not immediately clear whether Ukraine saw the threat of an attack on Volyn by Russian forces or the Belarusian military, which has so far not publicly committed its troops to support Russia.
Despite this, Belarus has already been the target of Western sanctions for President Aleksander Lukashenko’s proximity to Vladimir Putin.
At the same time, it is in the country that face-to-face negotiations between Ukrainian and Russian delegations discussing ceasefire agreements are concentrated. Conversations are currently taking place remotely.
