Ukraine’s military intelligence agency says that Russia has moved missile units into Belarus. These units are equipped with 'Oreshnik' missiles.
The Oreshnik is a new type of powerful missile that Russia recently showed off. By moving these weapons into Belarus, Russia is placing them closer to the border of Ukraine.
Belarus is a close ally of Russia. This move puts these specific weapons in a new spot where they could potentially reach more targets.
Officials in Ukraine are watching the situation closely. They say this is a concerning development in the ongoing war.
