Tsel Military Camp
In the town of Tsel in Belarus, there are reports of an empty camp that Russian mercenaries from the Wagner Group may use, as well as suspicions of a storage facility for tactical nuclear weapons. The camp, located north of Osipovichi (Asipovichy), has been prepared by the Belarusian army, but the Wagner mercenaries have not yet expressed interest in using it. President Alexander Lukashenko has offered the camp to Wagner's chief, Yevgeny Prigozhin, but it remains unclear why they have not visited. The situation raises questions about the deal struck between President Vladimir Putin and Wagner to defuse their recent mutiny in Russia. The town of Tsel is also near a secret installation that the CIA believes may be intended for nuclear weapons storage. However, Belarusian officials have not confirmed the presence of nuclear weapons and dismissed the CIA's claims. The town is situated near a training base with Iskander missile launchers, which are capable of delivering nuclear warheads. The local residents express concerns about the presence of Wagner and potential nuclear weapons, emphasizing that they desire peace and do not want their country to be involved in conflicts.
