Over the past 10 weeks of the study year, @zbsunion has collected evidence of 347 detained and 133 expelled students in #Belarus
#EHEArome2020

In some cases, the result of the detention is unknown, but at least 80 people received administrative punishment in the form of administrative arrest, and at least 54 people in the form of fines. #Belarus #EHEArome2020

Administrative pressure by universities on student activists in #Belarus was not the focal point of @zbsunion analysis, but nevertheless there were reports of at least 246 cases, 133 of which ended with expulsion. #EHEArome2020

@zbsunion created an infographic detailing the crackdowns against students in #Belarus which is updated regularly. #EHEArome2020

One of the students currently detained in #Belarus is Alana Gebremariam (@_activenigga_). She was arrested in Minsk on 13 November 2020. For years, she stood up for democracy and has shaped university politics, championing youth and student participation. #freeAlana #EHEArome2020

Alana is the first black woman who ran for a seat in Parliament in #Belarus. Her aim is to give young people a voice. She is a student representative in the Coordination Council of @Tsihanouskaya. #freeAlana #EHEArome2020

Currently, Alana is held in detention by the KGB, along with other students. Don't let them be forgotten! More information how you can help: aktionsbuendnis-belarus.de/en/alana/
