Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko hinted at easing tensions at the border with Ukraine. According to the Belarusian state agency Belta, during a troop inspection in the border area, Lukashenko mentioned the withdrawal of Ukrainian units from the region. "Now we have no complications with the Ukrainians, and I hope there won't be any," Lukashenko was quoted as saying by Belta. At the same time, Lukashenko announced the withdrawal of units that had been moved to the Ukrainian-Belarusian border in recent weeks.

Due to alleged troop build-ups and provocations on the Ukrainian side of the shared border, Lukashenko had reinforced the border forces earlier. However, from Kiev it was reported that Ukrainian forces had only fortified their positions along the border.
