Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has issued a chilling warning to Volodymyr Zelensky, saying a joint mobilisation of Russian and Belarusian forces — totalling 150 million people — would mark “the end” of Ukraine.

He claimed Putin has never requested Belarusian troops but warned NATO involvement would trigger missile strikes on Belarus. As the West watches, is Ukraine facing its darkest hour yet? What happens if the Belarus-Russian alliance escalates?
