- On 2 November, Belaruski Hajun stated that there were three MiG-31K interceptor jets of the Russian Air Force deployed at the Machulishchy airfield in Belarus.
- Yurii Ihnat, spokesperson for the Air Force of Ukraine, has said that the deployment of X-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic air-to-surface missiles to Belarus does not mean that they become more or less dangerous for Ukraine.
