Belarus convicts 419 people for supporting Ukraine
Original: bielorussia
Belarus has convicted at least 419 people for supporting Ukraine since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in 2022, according to Ukrainian media citing human rights monitors. The cases are part of a wider crackdown on dissent in Belarus, where expressing support for Ukraine or opposing the war can lead to charges of extremism or treason. Rights groups say the true number of political prisoners is likely higher.
Why now: New figures on the scale of political repression in Belarus highlight the government's ongoing crackdown as the war in Ukraine continues.
