Territorial Border Service Command
Identification
Open sources reviewed do not show a separate publicly named headquarters called "Territorial Border Service Command." The closest verified match is the State Border Committee's distributed layer of "territorial organs of the border service" (TOPS), which the official portal lists as Brest, Gomel, Grodno, Lida, Mozyr, Pinsk, Polotsk, Smorgon, the Minsk border-control detachment, the communications/support group, and the material-technical support group. This makes the record best understood as an organizational tier rather than a single fixed installation. ([tops.gpk.gov.by](https://tops.gpk.gov.by/))
Northwest sector
Smorgon Border Group is a verified territorial organ headquartered near Smorgon; its official history states it is deployed 7 km from the city, was formed in 1992, and since 2009 has operated as a border group rather than a detachment. It guards 240.754 km of the Belarus-Lithuania border and officially includes the Smorgon, Oshmyany, Ostrovets, and Pastavy border districts, which fits placemark 1 and makes the Pastavy placemark a plausible subordinate site of the same formation.

Northern sector
Polotsk Border Detachment is another verified territorial organ. Its official pages place headquarters in Farinovo, Polotsk district, and its historical note says the detachment currently guards about 271 km on the Latvian and Lithuanian borders. This aligns with placemark 3 more closely than a city-center site in Polotsk. ([tops.gpk.gov.by](https://tops.gpk.gov.by/polock/))
Support nodes
The same territorial layer also includes rear-area enabling sites away from the frontier. The Communications and Support Group is officially based in Minsk at 60 Pavlovskogo Street and was formed in 2014 by merging the Central Communications Hub with the GPK support center; the Material-Technical Support Group is officially based in Dzerzhinsk at 30 Chkalova Street, retains the military designation unit 1463, and was formed in 2012 by merging units 1463 and 2455 into a base enterprise for repair and material support. Placemark 4 is consistent with the Dzerzhinsk support complex and its unit number. ([tops.gpk.gov.by](https://tops.gpk.gov.by/2007/))
Southwest axis and posture
Brest Border Group is the verified territorial organ on the Brest axis; open-source reporting citing GPK statements places the Brest group's maneuver element, the "Orekhovo" border outpost, and the Mokrany international crossing on the southern frontier in late 2024. Separate open-source court reporting also identifies "Mokrany" as part of the Malaryta border commandant's office within Brest Border Group, so placemark 5 is plausibly linked to Brest-group/Malaryta infrastructure, though the exact office location is not publicly confirmed on official territorial-organ pages. Separately, an official 2024 training event for commanders of territorial organs focused on command and employment of organic and attached units, UAV use, tactical camouflage, and border service in special conditions, indicating a readiness-oriented and technology-enabled posture across this territorial layer.
