This should be an interesting test of Lukashenko's power.

The Belarus army serves one purpose, keep Lukashenko in power

Yes, and the Army leadership has kept Belarus out of the fighting. Hopefully Gulevich was dismissed as he was seen as a threat to Lukashenko politically and not as the primary obstacle to entry.

Big 'if', but if Gulevich has support from the security services and criminal gangs, this could get froggy for Lukashenko. We should watch Lukashenko's movements in the coming days to see what is what.

INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 11 May 2024

It has been reported that a Russian fighter aircraft accidentally released a FAB-500 munition on a civilian area in Belgorod, Russia on 04 May 2024. The Belgorod Regional Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov confirmed the explosion and damage on Razdobarkina street, Belgorod without identifying the cause. 30 houses and 10 cars were damaged, with five individuals requiring hospital care, illustrating the destructive power of the munition.

This is not an isolated incident. On 18 February a FAB-250 was reportedly released on Soloti in the Belgorod area which led to the evacuation of 150 residents. Media outlets suggest that such discharges are fairly common with 20 lost munitions accidentally dropped in the Belgorod region alone between March to April 2024.

These instances indicate Russia's continued inability to successfully employ their munitions on intended targets. Such errors have destructive and lethal consequences for the Russian population.

Has anyone discovered which of the three refineries in Ufa was hit? There are three there all owned by Bashneft (Rosneft). Each is a medium sized refinery.

Are there other refineries in Bashkortostan?

FWIW, when I try to look at refineries on Satellite views, there are some huge acreage of where old plants once were. It almost like all of the Exxon Refinery in Baton Rouge or Baytown have been torn down with bare ground left sitting there and likely contaminated like a mofo, because Russians still don't care. It's plain to see how all manufacturing in Russia had fallen over the decades. I'm going to call non competitive with the Free World
