February 3, Pozirk. A high-treason case against journalist Pavieł Dabravolski has been sent to the Minsk City Court, the Belarusian Association of Journalists reported.

Dabravolski was arrested on January 22, ten days after his 35th birthday. He may face up to 15 years’ imprisonment.
In late August, the human rights community declared him a political prisoner.

In October 2020, he was arrested in Minsk and jailed for 15 days.
According to Dabravolski’s social media, after leaving Belarus at the end of 2021, he traveled around the world. In October 2024, he returned to Minsk.
At least 32 media workers are held behind bars in Belarus, according to the Reporters Without Borders.
