In this context, a command-staff exercise "Indestructible Brotherhood - 2026" will be organized on the territory of Belarus.
Furthermore, Masadykov emphasized the importance of coordinating actions in the area of preventing biological threats, which will allow for the creation of a reliable biological security system for the CSTO. A special exercise "Barrier-2026" will also take place in October in Belarus, continuing the practice of joint efforts to eliminate biological threats in the interests of collective peacekeeping forces.
