December 27, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> The interior ministry identified Alaksandra Ramanava and Hleb Siamiona\u016d as members of the KYKY.ORG<\/em> media project, branded an extremist group in Belarus, its website said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KYKY.ORG <\/em>was blacklisted two and a half years ago. The extremist designation at that time covered the website, two affiliated Telegram channels as well as the project\u2019s Instagram, Facebook and X accounts. Authorities did not list any names, mentioning only a \u201cgroup of persons\u201d united by the blacklisted content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2021, the interior ministry has labeled more than 30 Belarusian independent media outlets as extremist groups in a bid to silence critics of the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least 45 media workers are held behind bars in Belarus, according to the Belarusian Association of Journalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
