Ukraine is still constantly being attacked from airfields in Belarus, with the key target being the critical infrastructure, and millions of civilians are affected as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are reasons to consider Belarus as a country under Russian occupation rather than a side of the conflict, as Lukashenko is not recognized as the legitimate head of the state by both the Belarusian nation and the absolute majority of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact that ordinary Belarusians\u2019 opinion on the Russia-Ukraine war is opposite to the Lukashenko regime\u2019s stance makes the role of this country rather dubious. For instance, the<br>Kastus Kalinovsky&#8217;s regiment, formed on the basis of Belarusian volunteers who had been in Ukraine since 2014, numbers several thousand people and heroically fights for both Ukrainian and Belarusian freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many other ways the Belarusian nation supports Ukraine in its resistance to the aggressor, and Ukraine In Flames explores them to better understand if Belarus is indeed Russia&#8217;s accomplice or an occupied nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/en\/tag\/ukraine-in-flames\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UKRAINE IN FLAMES<\/a>&nbsp;project is created by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ukraine Crisis Media Center<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eac.org.ua\/en\/main-page\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NGO \u201cEuroatlantic Course\u201d<\/a>.
