were affected. Accordingly, the security forces confiscated smartphones, among other things. State investigators told Telegram that the aim was to determine how the protests against President Alexander Lukashenko had been financed.
The authoritarian leadership repeatedly claims that the demonstrations are funded from abroad. Since August there had been repeated mass protests against Lukashenko. Since then, more than 30,000 demonstrators have been arrested, dead and injured.
Human rights activists accuse the regime of systematically torturing arrested demonstrators.
