hello, everything is clear with you about the project with marina karaman, let's talk about complex things in simple language, today about who pulled the belarusians out of... under the bombings, why are there

minibuses in the desert, why are states doing what they should and even more? go! those of us who have ever traveled by plane remember the slavic tradition of showering pilots with applause after a soft landing. if the flight was shaking before, they clap especially loudly. people tap their palms in a rhythm of gratitude that everything ended well. but there are situations when there’s simply no joy, even a good ending won’t let you go. on november 17, late in the evening, our national airport received a plane that was not operating a regular flight, a boeing 737 of belavia airlines boarded, there were more than 40 people in it who no longer hoped to enter their native land, the belarusians returned home from the gas sector, no, the gas was broken, a blooming piece of land on the shore. the mediterranean sea

turned into a smoking border in a few weeks. its airspace is closed to aviation. it was already not easy to get into this region. travelers mostly we were traveling to gaza by bus from israeli territory. now it is a piece of land isolated from the world. and even being close to its borders is unsafe. there is a real, terrible, bloody war going on there. it is easy to imagine the demographic and territorial dimensions of gas in belarus. she's like. minsk gaza area - 365 km, population 2,200,000 people. the area of ​​minsk is 348 km, the population is almost 2 million people. from the gas satellite it looks like a hatchet. the front part of the handle and blade of this hatchet are the gaza border with israel. the back is the coastline of the mediterranean sea, its length is 41 km. the upper part of the stop is the border with egypt. and now there is only. one

point through which humanitarian aid can be transported into gaza and people taken out is the rafah checkpoint on the border of gaza and egypt. it was through this point that belarusians and their relatives left the conflict zone to get to cairo, and there they boarded the belavia plane. it was not easy to gather our citizens who wanted to escape the war in gaza at one point. people were in different parts of the enclave, and throughout its territory they did not stop. jogs, and you can’t run over under missile attacks. israel blocked the internet for gas. not everyone had fuel supplies, and local gas stations were reduced to ruins. like all diasporas abroad, our guys united in chats. there they shared information, exchanged invitations to visit and sent each other parcels to their homeland. that is, almost all belarusians knew each other personally or in absentia. therefore, when the military conflict escalated, they created a chat for those who want to get out of the region. at the same time, people

called the belarusian embassies and asked for help. diplomats conveyed their requests to our president. alexander lukashenko convened a meeting, the outcome of which was predictable. the special services were tasked with getting belarusians out of the hell of war. no. between the meeting with the president and the return of our people from gaza, there were several difficult weeks for all participants in this special operation. diplomats, employees of the state security committee. hazard has done a job that deserves a mission impossible-style film adaptation. they negotiated with everyone, absolutely everyone, who had information about the progress of military operations and humanitarian corridors and providing the opportunity to bring people to the egyptian border. they also resolved the issue so that our plane would be allowed into egyptian airspace as soon as the belarusian country requested it. imagine how difficult this was, considering that there was a war on the egyptian border. the terrorist

threat is at its peak and obtaining the right to fly into the state outside of schedule and land a plane at the capital’s airport was possible only thanks to the meticulous work of diplomats and the personal trust of eastern leaders. lukashenko. at the same time, in chats, kgb officers worked with people who were waiting for help were clarifying information for transfers across the border. they supported those who were losing their composure and faith in the happy ending of this story. and then the day came when all the belarusians and their relatives were brought to the border with egypt. they were passed through the checkpoint and handed over to employees of our state security committee. a short but warm greeting, tears, food packages to give people strength to get back on the road. to deliver belarusian families from the rafah checkpoint to cairo, five minibuses similar to to our minibuses. they had to travel 319 km, part of this route through the desert. at this time , the belavia special flight was already being prepared for departure in minsk. they decided to send a large plane, in

a boeing that flew to cairo, with 189 seats, so that passengers had the opportunity to rest and receive first aid. two doctors and two psychologists were waiting for people on board. detachment of the ministry of emergency situations zubr. while exhausted people were shaking in minibuses somewhere in the desert, our plane was drawing a detour on the map to go around the territory of ukraine. the plane flew over bryansk, belgorod and volgograd regions of russia, laid a stitch over kalmykia, swept over dagestan and georgia, drew a diagonal on turkey, passed cyprus on the port side, crossed the mediterranean sea and arrived in cairo. the landing was carried out very quickly, in about 20 minutes, takeoff and the way home. someone speaks emotionally. with journalists, some passed out, barely felt safe, children, about twenty of them were taken out of the gas, played, drew, tried to see something in the dark windows, and only when the landing gear was pushed by the landing strip of our national airport, it became clear to everyone that the mission was accomplished, our homes, yes and no,

belarusians evacuated their loved ones, and where were they born to become close to our compatriots? it doesn’t matter, families whose wives are citizens of belarus have also flown home; their spouses are not yet there. once upon a time , very young guys came to us to study, mainly to become doctors, fell in love here, started families, and then, together with their wives and children, left for gaza, some to work, some to go home. most of those evacuated from gases in belarus there is housing or relatives. for example, one family, long before these events , bought themselves a small apartment in minsk. now, with five children, i was able to return, at least to cramped conditions, but to my own walls. the largest family, which did not have free property here, was sent to volozhin. all 14 people were placed in the territorial center of social services for the population. citizens of belarus, her three children and seven

grandchildren have already received documents, so adults from this family have the right get a job, seek free medical care, and let the children go to kindergarten. and school, two daughters-in-law of the woman’s husband will most likely be given refugee status. time will pass, people will come to their senses, settle down, and the episode with the evacuation will replenish the boxes of their extraordinary family stories, and it is gratifying to know that these stories will have a common idea. belarusians do not abandon their own. belarusians were evacuated from ukraine when it became completely dangerous to live there. the same story with truck drivers who were actually captured by looters and militants, then they too our special services pulled them out, also on instructions from the president. with the help of russia in the spring , diplomats returned our people from the outbreak of sudan, but we are not only pulling our people out of the combat zone. it has already been forgotten, but in 2020 about 8,000 of our compatriots

were stuck abroad because countries began to go into quarantine and massively ban air travel. the planet plunged into coronavirus chaos; they could not return home. mostly tourists and athletes, then our diplomats received calls from stranded people, negotiated, verified data, prepared passenger lists, and belavia, as usual, ran dozens of flights to help people return from india, vietnam, sri lanka, nepal, bangladesh, maldives, indonesia, mexico, qatar and european countries. to make the scale of the state’s participation clear, let me explain that in such cases our foreign ministries work simultaneously,

there is at least one reason for optimism: you are a citizen of a country that will harness you in any trouble: learn to distinguish the state from a surrogate, if necessary, will they tear you out of war lab people are like... who even fled abroad from their problems, well, grow out of stereotypes: real heroes do not wear capes, they work unnoticed, they try not to show their faces ; they definitely exist in our country. i’m marina karaman, and we figured out what to expect for belarusians who are in trouble abroad. everything is clear, see you soon!

i have issued a basic order that the membership of the belarusian red cross in the international federation has been suspended, but at the same time, everyone who needs our help, migrants from ukraine, from the middle east east of...
