Threads Account of Media Manager Kiryl Voloshin Declared “Extremist”

Belarus’s Ministry of Information has updated its list of “extremist materials.”

The list includes the Threads account of media manager and TUT.by co-founder Kiryl Valoshyn and the Instagram account of journalist Kanstantsin Kaveryn.

The list also includes the “This Minsk Media” page on Threads, as well as the “White Power” and “The Third Reich” sticker packs.

Belarus uses extremism charges to persecute opponents of Lukashenka and crack down on dissent more broadly.
