Former political prisoners shared their experiences of imprisonment and conditions of detention in Belarusian prisons. Tsikhanouskaya\u2019s team provided the shelter with essential household items.<\/p>\n<p>The Belarusian shelter in Warsaw offers temporary safe housing for people released from prisons and forced to start their lives anew. Accommodation is provided for up to two months, along with basic humanitarian and food assistance.<\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cIt is very important that people who have gone through prisons are not left alone once they regain their freedom. After imprisonment, they need not only safety, but also human support, understanding, time, and space to regain strength and begin a new stage of life. Thank you to everyone who creates and supports the shelter. Your work gives hope and helps people feel that they are not alone on the path to recovery,\u201d<\/i> the leader of the democratic forces said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_515126\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-515126\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-38-12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-515126 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-38-12.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-38-12.jpg 900w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-38-12-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-38-12-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-38-12-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-515126\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: t.me\/tsikhanouskaya<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_515125\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-515125\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-07.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-515125 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-07.jpg 900w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-07-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-07-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-07-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-515125\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: t.me\/tsikhanouskaya<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_515124\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-515124\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-515124 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-06.jpg 900w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-06-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-06-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-06-533x400.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-515124\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: t.me\/tsikhanouskaya<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_515123\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-515123\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-05.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-515123 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-05.jpg 900w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-05-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-05-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/photo_2026-02-05_14-37-05-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-515123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: t.me\/tsikhanouskaya<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Head of the United Transitional Cabinet Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya visited a Belarusian shelter for former political prisoners in Warsaw.
