The Foreign Intelligence Service calls for refraining from traveling to Belarus, which supports the country that unleashed armed aggression against Ukraine
The service emphasizes that visiting Belarus, which supports Russia, carries risks that, although smaller in scale compared to Russia, also threaten the safety and lives of Ukrainian citizens.
The SZR stated that all Ukrainians arriving in Belarus "will be subjected to filtration measures (questioning about the purpose of their arrival, personal data, political views, etc.)" and "personal phones are seized" for verification. In this case, special software is used to examine information from messengers such as Telegram, Signal, and WhatsApp, including previously deleted information.
Ukrainians in Belarus risk being deported or even detained.
"When deciding to travel to the territory of Belarus, your rights can be violated at any time," the SZR emphasizes.
