In Minsk today, September 19, another women’s march is taking place in protest against the current government. Police vehicles have already hit the city streets, but the arrests have yet to take place.

The Belarusian edition TUT.by reports on this.

Transport vehicles were noticed near the Komarovsky market. In addition, a police information group is working near the scene of the actions, which is warning journalists.

The women’s column passed through Bogdanovich Street and is heading towards Kuhlman Street. The participants of the march sing: “We believe, we can, we will win” and “Lukashenka is on the rice cart.”

Security officers are filming the protesters on camera, and in response to this, they shout “Shame!”

Let us remind you that the protest actions in Belarus have not stopped since 9 September. They began by falsifying the presidential elections in favor of the incumbent president, Alexander Lukashenko. The protesters demand the holding of new elections, as well as the punishment of all those guilty of dispersing the previous protests.

Today’s protest actions were again supported by opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya and called Belarusians for weekly marches.

It should be noted that during the protests on September 13, security agents detained more than 700 protesters.
