The most massive event in the history of Belarus


4 years ago, on August 16, 2020, perhaps the largest mass action in the country's history took place in Minsk. According to independent media, the unauthorized rally near the monument "Minsk is a hero city" gathered more than 220,000 people. The number of participants was counted, in particular, using the MapChecking service.


"According to our estimates, several hundreds of thousands of people gathered at the protest. The video does not reflect the whole picture - there was no physical space at the stele, people stretched out on all the nearby sidewalks that do not enter the space. frame", - it was emphasized on the air that day edition of Tut.by Demonstrators occupied the streets of Minsk's four central streets - Peramozhtsev, Nezalezhnasti and Masherava avenues. Historical actions took place that day in many other cities of Belarus - it was an exciting moment of national unity.


Eyewitnesses of those events claimed that such large-scale actions had never taken place in Belarus, as it was the largest political action in the country in its entire history. Unfortunately, they have not passed since then, because Putin's "brotherly" help saved the local dictator on the throne at the cost of the broken lives of thousands of Belarusians and the betrayed hope of an entire nation. Lukashenka trampled the shoots of democracy, tortured and imprisoned thousands of Belarusians.
