Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said that the latest Perun MANPADS would be handed over to the Ukrainian military.

Thus, Ukraine can become one of the most saturated MANPADS regions in Europe, combined with low control over their distribution.

'Lithuanian president called for Germany and the US to send more troops to the Baltics'

In an interview with the Financial Times, Lithuanian president Gitanas Nausėda called for Germany and the US to send more troops to the Baltics to show Moscow that NATO was ready to react to its aggression.
According to Nausėda, the Baltic states are facing their “most dangerous situation since regaining independence” due to around 130,000 Russian troops massed on the border with Ukraine and their presence in Belarus.

⚡Additional Russian military equipment arriving to Belarus today.

The number of Russian soldiers in Belarus is expected to increase to 30 000 in the coming days.

That will be the largest concentration of Russian troops in Belarus since the Cold War. https://t.co/Sn6ktLKpyV


For those who don't have a map: Belarus directly borders on the EU and NATO (shares a border with Latvia, Lithuania and Poland). One wonders how Moscow would react if NATO were to send 30k soldiers to any of those countries.
