#Belarus Day 35 of the protests. Happening right now in #Minsk. Women have gathered just a moment ago near the city hall for their traditional Saturday all-female rally. They are peaceful as usual.Unmarked buses arrived, brutal detentions began right in the beginning of the rally

#Belarus. These are amazingly strong and powerful women. Look how they are protecting themselves. They've also ripped off balaclavas from several unidentified men. People are indeed fed up adn don't agree with this injustice.

The security forces tried to detain 73-year-old Nina #Bahinskaya, who has been taking part in nearly every political rally in the past 30 years. Other women were able to defend her. She is one of the bravest women in #Belarus and is being admired by the whole country

I cannot explain this brutality. The green men are pushing the women back so that they are stuck. Dozens of women have been taken to a police van right after the rally started. Those who managed to escape continue marching. Fearless, resilient and most courageous women they are

#Belarus This blue car didn't go forward on the green light to block an unmarked bus with security forces and not let them detain women. So green men in balaclavas pulled the driver out of the car and took him to their bus. Women ran to the bus to protect the driver

Despite brutal and outrageous detentions of at least 30 women, they were resilient enough to gather today. It was a massive rally again, thousands of them marched through the city centre. Women were beaten,literally thrown to police vans,dragged by hair. Men were also detained
