Police disperse anti-fascist picket near Russian Embassy in Minsk

A 5-minute picket of anti-fascists took place near the Russian Embassy in Minsk. About 50 young people gathered near the building. They were holding a transparent “Fascism won’t do!” and portraits of four people who were killed by neo-fascists in Russia.

The main purpose of the action was to stop murders of people in the neighbouring country where attacks directed at foreigners have become more often. The action was not approved.

Young people were dispersed by the police 5 minutes after the picket had started. According to participants of the action, nobody was detained.
