    Fun fact: for almost a year Belarusian state news agency BelTA has been using hostage videos like the one with Roman Protasevich as paid ads on YouTube with links to their network of pro-govt telegram channels. We tried everything but YouTube says there’s nothing wrong about it. pic.twitter.com/suFn3ISdPi

        Also there are indications there was an attempt to strangle Roman. A doctor says: “On a processed video you can see a bruise on his neck forming a longitudinal line and covered with a makeup, which may mean suffocation (for intimidation, apparently)”. pic.twitter.com/XDNEzb9Crm

        In case this is helpful in the next few days: the one and only official Belarusian state TV channel plays videos of political prisoners - beaten and half-alive - as they "confess" to all kinds of things.
