Institute for the Study of War: Putin appears to have found a breakthrough, intending to conscript Belarusians to bolster military forces.

Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War believe the Kremlin may leverage the Union State Treaty to further draw Belarus into the conflict and mobilize the country's human resources in the future.

Owing to long-term manpower shortages, Moscow plans to recruit Belarusian citizens into the Russian military or integrate them into joint military units.

Meanwhile, the Belarusian Ministry of Defense reported that mobilization exercises are continuously underway in Grodno Region, with nearly 2,000 conscripts summoned to verify information and attend training sessions.
