Round-the-clock monitoring

Near the Belarusian border, the unit carries out continuous data interception, frequency monitoring and decryption of communication signals. The data is sent to a joint NATO coordination center.

The special unit's truck-based positions are camouflaged, and dismounted electronic warfare special forces groups have also been deployed in the border zone. Soldiers carry 30-kilogram backpack systems that allow them to set up operational communications where no infrastructure exists.
