Maria Kolesnikova, a prominent Belarusian opposition activist, has been allowed to see her father for the first time in over 600 days while imprisoned. A photo shared on social media captures the moment, providing a rare glimpse into her life in custody after she was sentenced to 11 years for extremism. Kolesnikova’s sister expressed disbelief at this development, raising concerns over her sister’s health and calling for increased international pressure for her release. The Belarusian regime, under Alexander Lukashenko, continues its crackdown on political dissent, with no real opposition allowed in upcoming elections.
