some pictures from today's #navalnyprotests
Russia police have arrested supporters of the jailed activist Alexei Navalny in some 90 cities on the second weekend of protests calling for his release. Independent monitors said more than four thousand people were detained, a similar number to last week. #bbcnews (cont.)
Moscow saw the bulk of the arrests, as police stopped demonstrators approaching the prison where Mr Navalny has been held for nearly two weeks. Protest organisers switched the locations to stretch police resources. #bbcnews (cont.)
They called for more demonstrations when Mr Navalny appears in court on Tuesday. Prosecutors want him to serve a 3.5 year jail sentence that was suspended in 2014 on embezzlement charges that Mr Navalny says were trumped up. #bbcnews (cont.)
The new US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has condemned what he called the persistent use of harsh tactics against peaceful protesters and journalists in Russia and he's again called for the release of Alexei Navalny and others detained. #bbcnews (cont.)
Russia's foreign ministry accused the US of gross interference in its internal affairs and of inciting unauthorised protests on what it called internet platforms controlled by Washington. #bbcnews
and one more detention at the end of the day to round up the #navalnyprotests in Russia - Batman taken
as of now 5038 arrests in Russia at #navalnyprotests, acc @OvdInfo

A Russian court has fined Yuliya Navalnaya, jailed opp politician Alexei @navalny's wife, 260 dollars for taking part in nationwide protests on Sunday. She was among those detained near the Moscow prison where her husband is being held. #bbcnews (cont.)
Navalny's due in court on Tuesday, when prosecutors will ask the judge to activate a 3.5 year suspended sentence he was given for embezzlement in 2014. Mr Navalny's supporters have called for more protests outside the court. #bbcnews (cont)
The Kremlin spokesman, Dmitri Peskov, dismissed the demonstrators as hooligans and provocateurs. The European Court of Human Rights said four years ago that Russian courts had made arbitrary and manifestly unreasonable decisions in Mr Navalny's embezzlement case. #bbcnews

Doctors had to put into a temporary coma a teenager who was beaten in Belarus. (Now he is conscious.) On August 12, Timur went to see a friend and disappeared. It turned out that people in civilian clothes had detained him. Descriptions of scenes of graphic violence in thread:
"They jumped out with truncheons and started beating and grabbing everyone who came to hand. The detainees were dragged and put in a bus on top of each other - in a pile. Later they sat on the detainees and did not stop hitting them. One of the detainees sh... himself from pain"
(EXTREME VIOLENCE DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS)
In the police department people were also beaten, Timur told his sister. He, a 14-year-old teenager was beaten in the groin. Another man had a truncheon inserted into the anus and they kicked it, driving it deeper.
