Belarus partisans said they blew up a Russian A-50 surveillance military aircraft The two Belarusians who carried out operation had used drones, it was claimed
Belarusian partisans and members of the country's exiled opposition said they damaged Vladimir Putin's A-50U surveillance military aircraft in a secret mission.
Two participants had used drones and had already left the country, claimed Franak Viacorka, a close adviser of opposition figurehead Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya.
Front and central parts of the AWACS Beriev A-50U aircraft as well as the radar antenna were damaged from two explosions at the Machulishchy air base near Minsk, Belarusian anti-government organisation BYPOL claimed.
'Partisans... confirmed a successful special operation to blow up a rare Russian plane at the airfield in Machulishchy near Minsk,' tweeted Viacorka. 'This is the most successful diversion since the beginning of 2022.'
The Beriev A-50, which has the Nato reporting name of Mainstay, has airborne command and control capabilities and can track up to 60 targets at a time.
The distinctive plane carries a fibreglass dome more than 33ft in diameter, housing rotating antenna of the Shmel radar complex. Its long-range radar detection system has been used to pinpoint bombing targets inside Ukraine.
'I am proud of all Belarusians who continue to resist the Russian hybrid occupation of Belarus & fight for the freedom of Ukraine,' Tsikhanouskaya wrote on Twitter.

What do American tax payers have to do with the actions of Belarus partisans? But if they can keep this up we should probably send them a grant or something.
There is a very strong underground movement in Belarus.... that’s all about it I’m going to tell you.
It’s so funny how anticommunist conservatives have suddenly turned pro Putin
Putin and Russia haven’t been communist in 30 years. And no more funny than seeing you Z fans aligned with Vindman, Biden, Trudeau, Obama, Nuland , Hillary, Sean Penn, Hollywood, the entire media, NYT, Soros, Schwab, Blackrock, Facebook…. Etc. Hell, even Maria Abramovitch the spirit cooker is all in for Ukraine.
Serious question, do you think every leftist, communist and globalist suddenly became clear thinking patriotic?
Belarus isn't an enemy of America, in fact Trudeau and weak Beta Boy Canadians are more our enemies.
Yes. We have a much more pervasive and invasive reconnaissance and spy capability. Theirs is almost childlike compared to ours. We really have become absolute experts in conflict and war over the last 25 or 30 years. The Russians don’t have very much experience in it, and aren’t engaged in wars around the world like we are, with the exception of Syria where their ally requested help from our Isis terrorists. So they really aren’t very good at it like we are.
Good point.
CIA operation, CIA news.

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
Plenty of time to again check Putin after God uses him as a tool to crush the evil globohomopedos.

no, Russia is the enemy
Russia’s plane was destroyed
obviously, there’s a lot of people in eastern Europe that still hate Russia’s guts ... what a surprise ...
Would that include weakening Canada because Trudeau is our enemy?
Moscow hasn't affected my life adversely, but Washington DC has. So have Canadian Cucks who cheer for war but are too cowardly to go themselves.
anything that weakens an enemy of America is good for America
Thanks for letting us in on that, Canadian.
Lots of folks still hate Germans too in Europe. Just as lots of people in China hate the Japanese. Qld wounds die hard. Lots of People hated Romans too but what does that have to do with the price of eggs? This war is turning into a referendum on who will rule the world for the next 50 years—The West who have for the last 80 years or the new super power The Axis Russia/China/Iran? The west has mucked things up with climate change religion. gay agenda, change, too much too fast. Sorry, the whole world doesn’t think like California or New York. A bigger war is Coming. For the first time since 1939 the west has a worthy foe. We won then but can we win now? The new Axis is better fixed that the old—they have a bigger navy, a richer economy and a dedicated large population. The winner is in question.
So it was Lukashenko who leaked the video of Putin’s naked dancing gay general! Too funny!
Gotta give Lukashenko some credit for that one!
Wake up call for the Belarus tyrant, the underground is stirring.
Mrs Putin and their daughter?
“globohomopedos”
Got some evidence for that? You know, like maybe a “globohomopedo” leaser doing something with a boy, say, like perversely kissing him?
