Explosions on railways transported by Russian troops and equipment are one of the tactics. The most recent case is the blasting of a reconnaissance aircraft at the airfield near the Belarusian capital. "Belarusians will not allow the Russians to use our territories freely for war in Ukraine, and we want to force them to go," Anton, a former Belarusian military who joined a group of sailors, said in an interview. According to the guerrillas, they conducted 17 large sabotage on the railways.
Local authorities, for their part, threatens them with death penalty and long prison terms. According to the human rights organization "Spring", at least 1575 Belarusian citizens were detained for their anti -war position, 56 of them received prison terms - from two to 23 years. "The Belarusian authorities are seriously frightened by the scale of the guerrilla movement in the country and does not know what to do with it.
Therefore, it resorts to strict repression and intimidation as basic tools," said the representative of the human rights activists press service Pavel Sawol. Recall that, according to the published monitoring group "Belaruski Gayun" on March 8, the Russian Federation sent new echelons with military equipment and personnel to Belarus. Earlier, Focus reported that on March 7, the Foreign Ministry responded to "challenges" of Ukraine from Lukashenko.
