General conclusion
The conclusion on the situation made in the report for March 14 remains valid.
The publication of new satellite images of the Obuz-Liasnouski training ground fully confirms our information about the rotation and withdrawal of part of the Russian contingent from Belarus. We should note that despite the decrease in the number of Russian soldiers at the training ground, the supposedly empty personnel tents have not yet been dismantled. This means that the Russian Armed Forces are not going to end their «training camp» at the training ground, and new groups of troops should be expected to be sent to Belarus for training.
Changes in the size of the group of the Russian Armed Forces in Belarus: no data.
