New offensive of the Russian Federation from the territory of Belarus: Rumors were the misinformation of the Kremlin - the media

According to Radio Liberty, a special operation was developed in Moscow to persuade Kiev and allies that the Kremlin plans a new offensive from the territory of Belarus. In February 2023, the General Operational Administration (Gou) of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Russia reported "successful efforts on operational masking", designed to convince Ukrainian intelligence in the plans of a new offensive on Ukraine from Belarus.

This follows from the secret document of the US Department of Defense, which has leaked into the network, Radio Svoboda writes. According to the document, the operation on "prompt masking" lasted from February 3 to February 10.

According to the Pentagon, the heads of the Main Operational Management of the General Staff of the Russian Federation, according to Pentagon, said that "successfully convinced Ukrainian intelligence services in the possibility of a joint Russian-Belarusian offensive from the Belarusian territory.

" The success of the operation confirmed the report of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service on the response of Ukraine to the report of joint flight and tactical exercises Also about the displacement of the focus of Russian-Belarusian exercises from the "offensive".

The Armed Forces allegedly believed that training in Belarus mobilized for the 2nd Guards Motorized Rifle Division of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the preparation of units of the 6th Motorized Rifle Division of the 3rd Army Corps of the Russian Federation is an attempt by Moscow to form a gap for the offensive. The purpose of these actions was allegedly violation of the logistics of delivery of Western military assistance to Ukraine.

In fact, on March 20, 2022, the Armed Forces General Staff reported "a great threat of offensive from Belarus to Volyn. " According to the document of the US Defense Ministry, the main operational management of the General Staff of the Russian Army recommended to continue the operation to misinformation of the Ukrainian command on the likelihood of offensive from the territory of Belarus, breaking it into two phases. The first phase was to last until March 6, the second - from March 6 to 11.

The plans of both phases were supposed to be sent for approval to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Belarus. We will remind, on March 2 in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine rejected the threat of a new offensive of Russian troops from Belarus. It was emphasized that Russia has no strength to open another front from the northern direction. The danger of a breakthrough may occur later if the Russian army begins to relocate from the Urals.
