Новый рекорд: за сутки в Беларусь прибыли почти 40 "Шахедов", а авиация поднималась в воздух 4 раза.

In Belarus, over the past 24 hours, from November 24 to 25, a record number of "Shaheds" entered the airspace. A total of 38 drones were recorded.

This information was reported by RBK-Ukraine, citing the monitoring group "Belarusian Hayun."

According to "Hayun," this number of Russian kamikaze drones entering Belarus from Ukraine represents an absolute daily record in the history of monitoring.

It is known that one "Shahed" reached Mozyr, and dozens of passages through the "Belarusian corridor" were recorded. Additionally, at least three times, "Shaheds" entered the Gomel region near the border crossing at Novaya Huta.

The first event occurred at 13:48 on November 24 in the Komarino area, followed by an exit to the Pripyat River at 14:11. Subsequently, the Shaheds entered Belarus at 14:04, 14:30, 14:34, 21:56, 22:58, 23:06, 23:08, 23:30, 05:03, 05:11, 05:15, 05:29, 05:30, 05:40, 05:55, 05:55, 06:28, 06:30, 07:10, 07:24, 07:53, 07:55, 07:55, 08:08, 08:39, 08:49.

The monitoring channel also noted that the "Shahed" which entered Belarus from Pripyat at 23:08 proceeded to Narovlya and reached the suburbs of Mozyr by 00:05. Its further fate is unknown.

It is likely that this drone was shot down by the air defense forces of the Republic of Belarus around 01:00.

In the last 24 hours, Belarusian aviation took off and flew southeast of the country four times. From 15:20 to 16:30, 23:40 to 01:30, 07:00 to 09:00, and 09:00 to 10:30.

"Among the 38 recorded instances, only 9 have been confirmed to have returned to Ukrainian airspace," the report states.

Incursions of Russian Drones into Belarus

Recently, Russian drones have regularly entered Belarusian airspace during Russia's attacks on Ukraine. This was first recorded in mid-July.

For instance, in July, nine Russian "Shaheds" were spotted in Belarus. At the end of August, Belarusian aviation was first involved in shooting down one of these drones.

On November 22, 10 "Shaheds" entered Belarus, marking the previously recorded highest number of Russian drones in the neighboring country.
