In addition, mobile internet connections have been resumed in the Belarusian capital, and so are being instructed by the authorities, as explained by mobile operators.
MTS, a mobile operator, said in a statement in Minsk on Sunday that “measures taken by the authorities have restricted access to the Internet and the quality of services provided to subscribers has deteriorated. We regret the situation. “
Subsequently, the mobile phone operator A1 warned its subscribers about disconnecting the mobile Internet.
“According to the instructions of the authorized authorities, on November 1 mobile Internet bandwidth was reduced in Minsk. Compliance with this requirement causes a deterioration of the quality of the data transmission service or a temporary unavailability of this service ”, indicates the message A1.
Armor with machine guns on the roofs was also seen for the first time in the Belarusian capital.
According to witnesses cited by the Interfax news agency, the armored vehicles entered the center of Minsk on Sunday morning. This time, however, it was not limited to the ten armors that traditionally guarded Aliaksandr Lukashenko’s residence during the protests.
For the first time, several armored vehicles with large-caliber machine guns were sighted in the avenue of the winners.
The armored vehicles headed in the direction of the stele “Minsk – the hero of the city” without state numbers.
Lukashenko told his security chiefs to crack down on protesters and “take nothing in captivity” earlier this week, issuing the most threatening warning to date since the demonstrations began in August following the disputed election of the head of state.
“It just came to our knowledge then.” If someone touches an official, I have already spoken with the generals, he must remain small, at least without hands, “said the authoritarian leader.
“Like that. We have nowhere to retire and we have no intention of retiring,” he said.
Lukashenko called what was happening in the country a rebellion.
For the third consecutive month, Belarus has protested against the authoritarian leader Lukashenko, who was officially declared the winner of the presidential elections on August 9. The opposition and western democracies consider that these elections are rigged.
Usually most people protest on Sundays.
