#Belarus Despite increased brutality,people show resilience. Look at the crowd chanting,”Leave” for the 78th day. #Lukashenko doesn’t know how to behave: at first the rally is quiet, then brutal. He jails his rivals,then goes and talks to them. He blames #Russia,then loves Russia
Speaking of the ultimatum,the rally was the largest in a week. As to the nationwide strike,private companies,language schools,shops and more are taking a day off tomorrow. It’s hard to predict,but I heard from many workers across #Belarus that they are ready to join,though scared 
Issuing the ultimatum two weeks ago brought the momentum: people began self-organising,connecting striking committees,spreading leaflets. Today’s bigger rally is a success. Even several plants and large companies partly striking will be a success. The real ultimatum only begins
