On May 21 at 19:00, the “Watch of Light” – silent vigil – will take place near the Embassy of Belarus in Lithuania (Mindaugo g. 13, Vilnius). We invite everyone in the Lithuanian capital and nearby areas to join and honor the memory of the people who died in prison and show solidarity with those who remain behind bars.
Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya has already joined the action. This morning, she visited the memorial near the Belarusian Embassy and lit a candle to remind the world that political prisoners are not forgotten and that the fight for their release continues every day.
May 21 is a truly important day for all Belarusians. Join events and rallies in your city (see the full list). Remember the names of our heroes. Share their stories on social media. Support the families if it is safe for you to do so.
Solidarity is our strength.
