go away it's the rallying cry of thousands of protesters in the streets of minsk this sunday and it's also their biggest demand they want president alexander lukashenko to go away to resign from office until then people say they will continue to protest in the future that this is a dictatorship because there is no respect for society for a people call for freedom and i hope we will keep an afrikaans. side while and see if we can be an. overthrow the government type of self-reliance is going to. go away that's also what authoritarian leader alexander look i would like the protests to do at a military exercise on saturday claimed again that enemies are at the border that western countries inspire the protests and that nato is deploying forces the

alliance firmly denies that claim so far was not able to deter dissent either with words nor with actions the regime has increased police presence even threatened to send in troops supposedly to protect world war 2 memorial it's earlier this month some $7000.00 people were arrested at the belarus in people continue to protest and their demand stands i. well our correspondent nick connelly is on the streets of minsk and he sent us so it's on another landmark day in the del of russian capital . it's difficult to imagine just a few hours ago hundreds of thousands of people were out here on the streets in minutes protesting brother says rigged election for a 2nd weekend in a row it seems this week's turnout was even bigger than last week's which already had to be the biggest in dollar says modern history yet you see it was surprisingly relaxed given that the government had threatened arrests going into this had reminded people that even taking part in these demonstrations was in itself an

illegal act people were out with their families their friends even with this small children and pets. if the police when they were told they were on the margins calling on people to go home using their megaphones in a way they proceed in whichever that would allow and cries of shame. i think the interesting thing will be see how this develops from to morrow through monday i don't think shanker said that he would give people the weekend to think things over and then he would show who's in charge the government he said would have to show that it is in power it holds the cards so that is what we are expecting from tomorrow hardening of the government response in recent days they've been ready to meet you detentions the government and the security services keeping a resin low profile although it is thought that government security agents are in the crowd in civilian clothing filming faces trying to work out who was taking part in all of this there was extraordinary scenes with the end of the protest where i'm going to cinco flew over the crowd to his personal helicopter he then emerged from

the helicopter wearing fatigues with a gun in his hand and tempt to show strength seems to have backfired many protests as a laughing and seemingly having lost their fear of this government and i think the shia in numbers just mean the people feel safe there's a feeling that the government called arrest everyone if 300000 people did indeed turn out today in a country of 10000000 that is just such a widespread movement that the government will struggle to put an end to this but the situation is unchanged there is no clear way out of the situation there is no process no dialogue of. refuses to speak to the opposition so for now these protests look set to continue. that was nick connolly reporting from minsk ok well in neighboring lithuania people rallied in support of the russian protest as an act of solidarity and it from outing democracy and criticizing lucas because or 30 areon room to protest and to form a human chain stretching from the lithuanian capital vilnius to the border with

better roots this action comes 3 decades after what was called the baltic way when residents of the baltic states lithuania estonia and latvia joined hands and linked their capital cities in a mass protest i named it in being sort of you lou. well the deadly correspondent constantini get is at the least you on the abilities board for us gratings constantine what has been happening today where you are. where all the human china is dispersed spots. at the concert which is held also very close to the belarus both in the old castle of mit didn't copy and what you hear now links us back to 9099 this is a song called we to mount change which 1st became famous during that period strike a years 30 years ago and now has become the anthem of the belorussian democratic movement this is a consequence united by their lithuanian television but in this 20 and musicians

and some people are russian was actually in solidarity with the with the democracy movement in belarus so this is a continuation of the event which i've seen today where about 50000 people lined as you rightly said from the capital all the way to the belorussian border which is actually just one kilometer one of the hoff over there and it was a very emotional event which definitely links the anti-communist movement for them all crecy in the late eighty's to today i felt it because i was at both can see the people in the streets where you were today and that that gathering to non what is it that they want to see happen in belarus. i think there is a very strong feeling in this when you have both in the political class and among citizens that belarus is brotherly country and it's true for 400

years the 2 nations were part of the polish lithuanian commonwealth and the design here is very much for belarus to move towards the european union to become a european nation and i think that this particular cell of solidarity is very strong here in least 20 if you look at the scene at this stage you'll see there are 2 anthems in fact one is the be all russian national coat of arms and another one is lithuanian but you barely can see the difference. constantine get thank you so much. right now let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world. the wife of prominent kremlin critic alex i never has visited him at berlin sheriff a hospital where he's in serious condition following a suspected poisoning. did not speak to the media and found he was flown to germany from siberia after falling violently ill. in open

well in the german city of music fans have done something that didn't used to be newsworthy i went to a concert but this was no ordinary show it was a scientific experiment the 1st of its kind in the world to test if large indoor events can be held safely during the pandemic concert promoters and live music fans everywhere i'm naturally eager to see the results they did. was they to see for himself. it's like a blast from a not so distant past 1500 people packed together in an indoor arena in leipzig for a concert of german singer songwriter tim benz co the fans here are volunteers part of restart 19 a study to see if and how big events can be held safely in the era of coated 19. that's right most of my time chris is talking concert going is my hobby i go to 2030 concerts a year and now that it's not possible because of corona i want to support the study

to help find out how we can still hold concerts on hunting. safety measures including a negative corona test and a thermal scan are needed to get inside. everyone taking part in this experiment even the press have been given these medical grade face masks and been ordered to keep them on at all times we've also been given bottles of disinfectant which we used to clean our hands as often as possible. contact tracers worn around the neck tracked the distance between concert goers to identify where in the area fans group too closely together. it doesn't sound very rock'n'roll but the one pop star present was satisfied with the results. this summer we had to endure drive in concerts so for us this feels like the 1st step towards normality if you were to ask the show to the. to.

restart 1000 is not a perfect experiment wearing masks at a concert and keeping social distance are not real world conditions. this is such as adding to s. to show that this is the 1st step you can either say we have no data got or you can say we have done at that doesn't quite correspond to everyday life but yet you have to weigh their time and going half way is. better than not going forward at all because i was going to. singer tim benz go and the scientists carrying out this experiment don't think it's the answer to all our corona problems but the results of the study expected in about 6 weeks could make it possible to hold concerts why sports and other big public events again and to do so safely. and finally the one and only ivan that's i've been there is the
