Combat readiness check of the army conducted

A parallel check of combat readiness has begun in the Belarusian army, carried out by the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff from January 16 by order of the President of the Republic of Belarus. The Minister of Defense explained that these activities are conducted in parallel and are not related to each other, each having its own plan and objectives. At the same time, checks under the Ministry of Defense's plan and those carried out by the President's order are considered independent due to differences in their tasks and methods. It is expected that the first check will assess combat skills, logistical readiness, and material and technical support of military units.
