Large Group Of Russian Federation Helicopters Depart From Machulishchy Airfield

It's become known where some of them are heading.

Since morning, the activity of the Russian Air Force helicopters has been registered in Belarus, reports Charter97.org referring to the Belarusian monitoring groups.

According to the Belaruski Hayun monitoring group, Russian Air Force Mi-24 and Mi-8 helicopters have been taken off from the Machulishchy airfield since 09:39.

At the moment we know that 5 helicopters of Russian Air Force (4 Mi-24 and 1 Mi-8), which left Machulishchy, landed at the Luninets airfield. Another one Mi-8 helicopter went to the Lepelski firing range.

It is too early to talk about the redeployment of a group of Russian Air Force helicopters closer to the border with Ukraine; it is quite possible that this is a training flight with a landing at another airfield.

As Charter97.org reported yesterday, the air-raid alarm siren got activated in Machulishchy. The siren was heard at around 13:40 and lasted about 3-4 minutes.
