Police in Belarus have arrested at least 100 people in Minsk and other towns as protests against Alexander Lukashenko were held for the fourth weekend in a row, writes BBC.

“Protesters want the long-time president to resign after his re-election last month amid allegations of ballot-rigging. Mass unrest since then has seen at least four people killed and hundreds injured as the government tries to stamp out dissent… A number of opposition figures have fled the country amid threats of imprisonment”, - reads the article.

Lukashenko won the 2020 election in Belarus with a reported 80.23% of the vote, which was met with widespread protests throughout the country and violent repression by the Belarusian authorities.
