Reportedly a prison uprising in Belarus of those that Lukashenko had arrested for protesting his election. https://twitter.com/bfreetheatre/status/1293677520353714176
Video captures the sound of the prison uprosing. Surely Lukashenko’s time as dictator of Belarus is coming to an end in the near future. https://twitter.com/bfreetheatre/status/1293679746946076678
For this interested, I wrote this piece about how I got involved in the Belarusian political discussion, what’s happening there and why Lukashenko needs to be removed. https://bellyupsports.com/2020/08/lockdown-boredom-turned-me-into-a-belarus-activist/
This uprising has been coming for a long time, and perhaps has been accelerated due to Lukashenko’s complete lack of a #COVID19 response. In this piece, I touched on the lack of response in #Belarus. https://bellyupsports.com/2020/07/belarus-lukashenko-bffs-deadly-covid-response/
Here’s another piece I wrote a while back about the new international attention on #Belarus that came about with the continuation of play in the BPL. In it, there’s discussion about #Lukashenko’s #COVID19 response, in which he has said absurdities. https://bellyupsports.com/2020/04/international-fanfare-and-a-pandemic-the-world-discovers-belarus/
Obviously, “election” is a loosely used term here. We all know that it was fixed in his favor.
