It has already been written that according to the official preliminary results of the presidential election in Belarus, the current head of state Alexander Lukashenko won 80.08% of the vote, while opposition candidate Svetlana Tikhanovska – 10.09%, but the opposition believes that the election results are fake.

Thousands have been injured or detained in Belarus by violently suppressing protests against blatant election irregularities and falsifying results. More than 250 victims are being treated in hospitals, and there are also deaths.
