In November, drones entered the airspace of Belarus at intervals of one to two days. Of these, 148 were Shahed-type attack drones, and three were reconnaissance drones. This was reported by Belaruski Hayun, "Komersant Ukrainian" informs.
According to the newspaper, 82 drones returned to Ukraine or Russia, while 66 disappeared from the radar. There was no information about damage or casualties on the ground as a result of the drones’ crash.
the 151 drones that entered Belarus in November is, according to Belaruski Hayun, a new record. That is, there were fewer before.
Also, according to the publication, at least three cases of Shahed drones being shot down by Belarusian air defense forces over the Mozyr district were recorded in November. It happened on November 24 and 26. However, the Belarusian Air Force’s regular aircraft take to the air on alert much more often.
On the night of December 1 to 2, 31 flights of Russian Shahed-type kamikaze drones were recorded entering Belarus from Ukraine and Russia.
It is interesting what difficult routes the drones sometimes fly. On the same night of December 1 and 2, one of the drones was moving toward Belarus, turned around and flew to Russia, then returned to Belarus, then made another turn over Belarus and flew back to Russia.
the 31 entries of Russian Shahed-type kamikaze drones into Belarus from Ukraine and Russia on the night of December 1 and 2 is not a record number of “fly-ins.” According to Belaruski Hayun, from November 24 to 25, at least 38 flights of Russian Shahed-type kamikaze drones into Belarus from Ukraine were recorded, which is the absolute daily record for the entire period of monitoring.
