Azerbaijan shoots at Karabakh with Belarusian weapons
Azerbaijan could have used Belarusian Polonaise multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) during today's shelling of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Belarusian political scientist Igor Tyshkevich, who fled to Ukraine, wrote about this on his Telegram channel, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“Judging by the geography of the strikes, the Belarusian Polonaise was also used,” Tyshkevich wrote.
Later on his YouTube channel, he recalled that Belarus is actively trading weapons with Azerbaijan. There are now at least 8 Polonaise MLRS launchers there.
“According to some sources, Polonaise was largely developed with Azerbaijani money. Belarusian electronic warfare (electronic warfare) systems are being actively supplied to Azerbaijan. Belarusian unmanned aerial vehicles and some other equipment are beginning to be delivered. These supplies to a warring country will naturally raise certain questions from both Armenia and Russia,” Tyshkevich said.
He believes that supplies of Belarusian weapons to Azerbaijan will continue.
“Official Minsk could tell Moscow that there will be no more, but Azerbaijan is a key partner. Therefore, one of the states to which Azerbaijan and Turkey will turn will be the Republic of Belarus. And, despite the obligations under the CSTO, the Republic of Belarus will help in case of direct appeal,” Tyshkevich said.
Today, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense announced that the Armenian Armed Forces shelled settlements on the contact line in Karabakh, according to this data, there were civilian casualties. According to the Armenian Ministry of Defense, Karabakh “was subjected to air and missile attacks...”, the Armenian side shot down two helicopters and three Azerbaijani drones.
