#Lukashenko had to show he’s in control of the situation, hence this brutal response, which reminds me of the first days right after the election. Today, more than 300 people and at least 40 journalists have been detained across #Belarus. The figure may increase

Maxim Znak l'un des derniers membres du présidium du conseil de coordination libre et en Biélorussie, n'est plus joignable, rapportent les médias biélorusses. On redoute sa disparition à l'image de celle de Maria Kolesnikova. #BelarusProtest
Kravtsov: after #Kolesnikova tore up her passport (in nomansland between #Belarus and Ukraine) "she climbed out of the car and she walked bravely to Belarusian territory". Says he's not entirely surprised at such a heroic act cos he's been observing her determination for months
