  • “The regime sees nothing wrong in keeping people in the dark”. Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya’s comment on the drone crash in Minsk

    July 29, 2025

    Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya: “Last night, another Russian drone was shot down in Minsk. It crashed near a kindergarten and lay there for half an hour before the police arrived. Fortunately, there were no casualties this time. But just this past week, 59 drones entered Belarusian airspace, and the fact that no one was hurt is nothing more than a lucky coincidence.

    The regime sees nothing wrong in keeping citizens in the dark: there are no SMS alerts and no warnings on TV or radio. No instructions are shared on how to keep children or the elderly safe. No details about the incidents are disclosed. For the regime, controlling people is far more important than caring for their health and safety.

    In a situation like this, it’s up to us to look after one another: to inform, to warn, and to help. Please read this detailed instruction on what to do if Shahed drones are approaching, and share it with your loved ones so they know how to protect themselves”.
