Activists defend the people's memorial: a shocking video of the clashes between Kurapaty defenders and vandals from the authorities.

Today, Belarusians again came to defend the national memorial in Kurapaty from destruction.

During the confrontation of activists with the police and the builders working in the tract, Youtube user “Kastus Kalіnouski” drew attention to the shocking video.

A few minutes later, Kurapaty defenders Nina Bahinskaya and Pavel Seviarynets were brutally detained by the riot police officers.

We remind, that the authorities demolished crosses around the Kurapaty perimeter yesterday.
