July 26, Pozirk. Three journalists from the Belarusian investigative project Biuro are on an interstate wanted list, Mediazona Belarus reported.
Alaksandar Jaraševič, Alaksiej Karpieka and Volha Alchimienka are in the Russian interior ministry’s criminal investigation database.
Biuro said on Telegram that it regards the criminal prosecution as revenge to its investigations and an attempt to exert pressure.

It says its investigations have an impact, such as European politicians imposing sanctions and officials initiating inspections and opening criminal cases.

According to the Belarusian Association of Journalists, 38 media workers are behind bars.
