Vitsebsk police detain legendary Miron

A white-red-white flag appeared on the “MTS” antenna installed on the roof of the office of the Central Statistic Administration of Vitsebsk Region (Lenin Street, 10a) at 5.30 a.m. on August 7. It was removed with the help of a fire-engine half an hour later. According to the web site “Narodnyya navіny Vіtsebska”, the police detained an 18-year-old guy near the building. They think that he is the legendary Miron who hoists white-red-white flags for all important national holidays.

However, the first flag in Vitsebsk Region was hoisted by Miron 11 years ago in Lyozna. The detained was 7 years old back then.
