Three strategic cellular communication towers put out of action in the border area with Ukraine
Three cellular operator transmitting devices were put out of action in the south of Belarus: two in the Gomel region, one in the Brest region. This was reported by the official Telegram channel of the Belarusian mobile operator Becloud.
The message, marked "Base Station Lost!", also specifies the names of the owner-operators, the names of the nearest geographical points, their coordinates, and the operating frequency of the base stations — 800 MHz, writes "Flagstock".
All towers are located relatively close to the border with Ukraine. One of them — operator A1, located in the exclusion zone, in the area of the Maidan checkpoint in Khoiniki district (about 26 km from the state border), the second — MTS operator in Slabada village, Lelchitsy district (about 27 km from the state border), the third — MTS operator in Hrushka village, Malaryta district, Brest region (about 12 km).
The specified towers can be considered strategic — previously, Ukrainian authorities and military personnel stated that towers in the Belarusian border area are used to retransmit signals for controlling Russian UAVs in adjacent regions of Ukraine.
The towers stopped functioning between October 21 and November 3. As of now, their restoration has not been reported.
Could the malfunctioning of the base stations be related to the transmission of signals for Russian UAVs flying along the Ukrainian-Belarusian border? This cannot be ruled out. There have been previous reports of transmitting devices failing on Belarusian territory within a distance of up to 50 km.
However, confirming the effect of a possible shutdown of "repeaters" is quite difficult. The Ukrainian monitoring service "Tryvohy" (Alarms) indicates a decrease in the total time of air raid alarms in the border town of Ovruch at the end of October, followed by their resumption.
Earlier, Flagstock reported that in Tonezh village, Lelchitsy district, which is near Slabada, an MTS base station was also damaged. At that time, the operator announced a tender for construction and installation work to restore the facility. And previously, a Ukrainian strike on a tower near Lelchitsy was reported, without specifying its coordinates.
