Belarus sees the biggest protest movements in the history of the nation. Several 10 000 people have gathered around the „Hero-City“ memorial in Minsk. They demand the release of all political prisoners and resignation of Lukashenko.
It's amusing the government has been bussing supporters into the capital from across the whole country, and the pro government rallies are still so tiny with that artificial support given. Pretty telling really.

Idk guys, I'm starting to think that the opposition is actually supported by more than a 10% of the voters.
