Kalinouski.

This is coolbert:

Kastus Kalinouski battalion enters the fray. Dissident elements opposed to the Belerus autocrat Lukashenko put their bodies where their mouths are. Volunteers Belarussians on the side of the Ukrainian.

From the voice of America [VOA] the story by Igor Tsikhanenka & Michael Lipin April 02, 2022.

"How Belarusian Fighters in Ukraine Evolved Into Prominent Force Against Russian Invasion"

"WASHINGTON — New details have emerged about Belarusians fighting for Ukraine against Russia's invasion as part of a broader struggle to free their own country from Russian domination and the rule of Moscow-backed autocrat Alexander Lukashenko."

"Speaking exclusively to VOA in a Tuesday phone interview, the deputy commander of the largest pro-Ukraine Belarusian fighting force said its numbers have almost reached the size of an average Ukrainian battalion, which he said has about 450-500 troops."

Some will suggest the contribution of a such a small force is nothing more than SYMBOLIC but in the modern connected world of the Internet symbolism often is vital to a cause or 

movement.

And yes, these personnel can do yeoman duty, guard duty, sentries for vital installations, rear-echelon heavy-lifting, all of which are necessary and even vital!

Their willingness to joing a battle they also see their fight admirable and commendable! Bravo.
