Authorities in Belarus on Tuesday carried out raids and property seizures targeting more than 200 opposition activists, the latest step in the unrelenting government crackdown against dissent, coinciding with the opposition's “day of solidarity with Belarusian political prisoners.” Belarus’ authoritarian president, Alexander Lukashenko, began the clampdown in August 2020 in response to mass protests following his disputed reelection, denounced as rigged by the opposition and the West.
The committee's spokesman, Sergei Kabakovich, said that “arrests, searches and property seizures” were underway across Belarus and came as part of a large-scale investigation of the Coordination Council. Pavel, the former minister, told The Associated Press that authorities were intensifying repressions against Belarusians at home and abroad out of fear that mass protests could erupt again.
