When Russia held large-scale military exercises in Belarus in February, the two countries described them as defensive in nature, aimed at repelling outside aggression, namely from Ukraine and NATO.

Russian forces have suffered significant losses in manpower and equipment since September, when Ukraine launched a counteroffensive that continues in the Donbas in the east and Kherson in the south. Abuz-Lyasnouski is the southernmost of the locations, located about 160 kilometers north of the Ukrainian border.
There's been no public explanation from Russia as to the purpose of the camps nor the number of troops it plans to station in Belarus. Ukraine said they would be housed not just at bases but also civilian locations including warehouses, hangars, and abandoned agricultural farms. That would make it hard to determine the number of Russian troops in Belarus based on satellite imagery alone.
