An armed Ukrainian serviceman crossed the Belarusian border, the State Border Committee (SBC) of the Republic of Belarus said.

"The incident occurred yesterday, November 19, around 16:00. A video camera at the railway checkpoint "Slovechno" (from the Ukrainian side - "Vystupovichi") recorded the movement of an armed man on the territory of Ukraine in the direction of the border. Subsequently, he illegally crossed the border passing through the center railway bridge, and entered the territory of Belarus," the message says. The CPC informed that "while on Belarusian territory, the Ukrainian serviceman carried out photo and video filming of the area, and also searched for or installed something in the snow."
