Russische invasie: Situatie dag 460
May 29, 2023 - Belarus President Lukashenko says of other countries that want to join the Union State of Belarus and Russia, there could be “nuclear weapons for everyone”.
Belarus officials say Western countries left Belarus with no choice when deciding to deploy Russian tactical nuclear weapons as part of its strategic deterrence to counter what it claims is a proxy war against Moscow.
Even as Kyiv residents poured into the streets to celebrate Kyiv Day, the anniversary of the founding of the city 1,541 years ago, Russia unleashed its biggest drone attack since the start of the war. Ukraine air defences downed 58 of the 59 drones launched.
