The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine has reinforced patrols in all the sectors of the Ukrainian border in connection with the Russian-Belarussian Zapad 2017 major war games, scheduled for September 14-20, according to TV Channel 112 Ukraine.
“Since the beginning of September, we have begun our command and staff exercise, including beefing up border security in all directions without exception, starting from the ATO zone (in the east), northern, western, southern sections. We have been enhancing measures in all sectors, at least for the period when the Zapad 2017 exercise is going on,” aide to the chairman of the Border Guard Service and its press secretary Olen Slobodyan told TV Channel 112 Ukraine.
