A national white-red-white flag was noticed on the roof of a three-storey dwelling house on Herzen Street in Vitsebsk about half past seven in the morning on 1 March.
As Vitsebsk oppositionist Barys Khamaida said to BelaPAN, a notice was fixed to the flag. It runs “Glory and respect to politician of the Belarusian National Republic and prominent scientist Vaclau Lastouski. Glory to heroes of the BNR! Long live Belarus! Miron!”
A white-red-white flag in honour of one of the BNR founder and author of the third charter of the republic Anton Lutskevich was also hung out on the roof of a three-storey house opposite the Vitsebsk district court on 26 February. A flag, which appeared on the power line above the roadway Vitsebsk-Polatsk on 19 January, was hung out in honour of the first BNR prime minister Yazep Varonka.
In B. Khamaida’s view, white-red-white flags dedicated to the BNR figures will be hung out in Vitsebsk till 25 March: the day when the 90th anniversary of the BNR proclamation will be celebrated.
“Miron” hangs out national white-red-white flags in Vitsebsk in hard-to-get but open for observation places since 1995. Militia watch the appearance of flags, but haven’t managed to detain a person, signing up as Miron.
