Moscow, Dec 29 (AFP\/APP): Russia’s key ally Belarus said Thursday its air defence shot down a missile launched from Ukrainian territory, in the first such incident reported by Minsk since the start of Moscow’s Ukraine offensive.<\/p>\n

The Belarus defence ministry said a missile was shot down around 10:00 am local time (0700 GMT) with its debris discovered in a village in the western Brest region that borders Ukraine and Poland.<\/p>\n

“It was preliminarily established that the fragments belonged to an S-300 anti-aircraft guided missile launched from the territory of Ukraine,” the ministry said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko “was immediately informed” of the incident, a Telegram channel close to the presidency said earlier.
\nThere was no information yet about possible injuries or casualties.<\/p>\n

In November, a missile landed in a village in NATO member Poland and killed two people, also sparking concern the US-led alliance would be drawn into the conflict in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Russia denies having fired the missile, while Warsaw said it was likely caused by a Ukrainian air defence missile launched to intercept Russian attacks.<\/p>\n

Russia has used Belarus as a launching pad for its Ukraine offensive.
\nIn October, Belarus said it was establishing a joint regional force with Moscow, with several thousand Russian servicemen arriving in the ex-Soviet country.<\/p>\n

The move has fuelled concern Minsk could also send troops to Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
