Jeanne and Vislav, who live in front of the Alien Registration Center, had a restless night: there were shots, explosions and smoke on Wednesday night.

Riots broke out at night when several dozen aggressive asylum seekers tried to leave the center.

“Already when their active actions threatened the officers and those around them, they had to use a smoothbore pump pistol loaded with rubber bullets. Shoot twice into the air and use gas, “he explained.

Responsibility for what is happening at the Foreigners Registration Center lies with the organizers of illegal migration and the Belarusian regime, the interior minister said.

The minister does not rule out that there is more than one such disturbance in the migrant camp.
“Clearly, there are certain subcultures and there is a certain hierarchy, there are cultural issues of mindset. These things work and, it seems, we need translators as soon as possible, ”added the minister.
