Belgium expressed doubts about the reliability of reports about "Russian UAVs"

Residents of Belgium have increasingly begun to doubt the authenticity of media reports about "Russian drones" allegedly appearing over the country. This was reported on November 13 by the newspaper DH.

"So far, the government and the Ministry of Defense have not provided any solid evidence — neither photographs nor videos — that security is imperative. A silence that raises doubts: is the government losing the trust of citizens?" the newspaper notes.

According to the newspaper, another factor of tension was the accusation against Russia, which many in the country consider "too convenient."
