The Belarusian security forces violently dispersed the demonstrations using grenades, rubber bullets and water cannons. During the protests, hundreds of protesters were injured and wounded. According to official figures, four protesters died.
Another victim, Roman Bondarenko, is known as the result of a confrontation between unknown masked persons with neighbors in the area. The conflict took place over white, red and white ribbons. The Belarus Investigation Committee said the deceased was drunk. In a comment to TUT.BY, doctors said that Bondarenko’s body had zero ppm of alcohol.
