Outrage as Ryanair plane “hijacked” by Belarus to arrest dissident journalist – BBC News
Belarus has been accused of hijacking a European passenger plane and engaging in “state terrorism”, after it forced a Ryanair flight to perform an emergency landing in Minsk and arrested an opposition blogger, who is critical of the country’s authoritarian president Alexander Lukashenko.
The Ryanair plane had been flying from Greece to Lithuania when it was diverted to the Belarusian capital, where the journalist Roman Protasevich was detained by police. State media in Belarus said the plane was forced to land because of a bomb scare.
There’s been a chorus of condemnation across Europe. The British foreign secretary said the action by the Belarusian authorities would have “serious implications”.

We look at big changes to the benefits system which the UK government say aim to save £5bn a year by 2030.
They were announced in the House of Commons by Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall who said the changes would create a more “pro-work system”. However, charities and some Labour MPs are worried benefit cuts will push disabled people into poverty. Alex and James talk through the changes with Chris, and then are joined by the pensions minister Torsten Bell.
And, President Putin has agreed to halt strikes on Ukraine energy targets for 30 days after a call with President Trump. The two men spoke for around 90 minutes, and fresh Ukraine peace talks will also begin in the Middle East immediately, the White House says. Alex and James are joined by Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on EU leaders to provide fighter jets and arms for the war against Russia, on his second trip abroad since the war began.
“We have to enhance the dynamics of our co-operation, we have to do it faster than the aggressor,” President Zelensky said.
He was earlier given a standing ovation at the European Parliament in Brussels.
Several EU leaders have already stressed that a decision on warplanes would be a collective move.

The White House has hit back against a reported plan by Amazon to detail the price impact of President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs to its customers, calling it a “hostile” political act.
Amazon told the Washington Post it had looked into itemising the costs for customers using Amazon Haul, a low-cost site it launched in the US last year to compete with Shein and Temu.
But it denied such a move had been under consideration for its primary e-commerce platform.
At a press conference marking the president’s 100 days in office, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said she had discussed Amazon’s reported move with the president and claimed it represented “another reason why Americans should buy American”.
Trump has ramped up tariffs since re-entering office in January, measures he argues will boost manufacturing and raise tax revenue for the US.

A series of earthquakes including a 6.2-magnitude tremor have struck near Istanbul, shaking buildings in Turkey’s largest city and prompting people to flee apartment blocks.
There have been no immediate reports of casualties or wider damage, but Istanbul officials said they were checking buildings and warned people to stay clear of potentially-damaged sites.
The largest earthquake on Wednesday struck at 12:49 local time (09:49 GMT) at a depth of 6.92 km (4.3 miles), Turkey’s emergency services said.

Protasevich is a Belarusian right-wing populist. He was a combatant in the Ukrainian nationalist Assow Batallion and a friend of Belarusian Ultra-Nazi Stanislav Gontscharow. ICAO's January 2022 report refuted Western claims. The german Politician Cem Özdemir even took on the prisoner sponsorship for this Belarusian right-wing populist.

He should have complied ATC immediately. They was too high to land in Lithuania, meaning pilots were thinking whether to divert or try to reach final destination. Meaning when they first got an alert, Minsk was closer. This is not an alert to ignore, fighter escort common practice and even if you say Ryanair was "Hijacked", Belarus had no orders to shoot it or it would have been already act of terrorism.

Where was the outrage when E.U and U S.A diverted and forced Bolivian President's plane to land in Germany, and strip searched it because they believed Edward Snowden was inside? You humiliated an entire nation and don't see anything wrong with your behavior then .

THE GREAT AWAKENING
Open Letter To The 45th President Of The United States Of America Donald J Trump
THE GREATEST PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME
God Bless You Donald Trump and give you the courage, strength and wisdom, to be on the right side of destiny, to be the greatest president the USA has ever had!!
Sir you have achieved more in your 1st term in office than all the previous presidents combined.
Once people realise and really wake up, and see your hand in the down fall of the cabal, the global elites, the corrupt bankers, mainstream media,politicians, the various royal families in the world and their insatiable thirst for adrenochrome and other nefarious activities.
To gain the fountain of youth they have needlessly enslaved young children and trafficked them like disposable goods. All In the pursuit of their own insatiable greed & vanity, they have sacrificed their humanity and are pure evil and satanic to the core.
Once people realise your great military war against the deep state, and all the 5 million children that you have rescued from dumbs (deep underground military bases). You will become a national & international hero.
Posterity will confirm and history will record. That You Sir, will be remembered as the Greatest President of The USA. Who has actually given the power back to the people, aswell as their liberty & freedoms. May the sun always shine, on the glorious New Republic, that you have newly created, once the US goes back to constitutional law and away from corrupt marine law.
Most importantly though Sir you will be remembered as the greatest peace maker and humanitarian.
I can only reiterate that Donald you are an amazing man and inspirational in your vision. I can only wish you a very long live, aswell as your incredible family.
God bless the USA and the rest of the world.
MAGA!!

If I ran an airline that operated in Europe, I would order all my pilots to avoid Belarusian airspace at all costs. If it costs more on fuel, if that costs needs to be added to a ticket, then it is a worthy cost. There is no price too high when it comes to passenger safety

Did anybody get hurt tough? They stopped the plane in order to make an arrest. Why does BBC and the West even care? They are acting as if they were in the plane themselves and somehow they got hurt.
If the US did that, claiming there is a terrorist in the plane, they'd be applauded.

What I like most of all about this story is that the plane belongs to nation that condemns Israel and sides with Palestinians. Lol… last time israeli plane was hijacked , Mossad rescued it from Uganda. But this time plane belongs to coward nation that only knows how to side with terrorists. So looks like it will stay in Minsk for long time.

British people have to pay £150 a year even if they do not watch the BBC!
The cost of launching BBC Persian was £265,000,000 to create free an anti-Iranian program with an annual budget of £25,000,000
And how is that situation about other countries and why?!
But why did BBC Farsi block the posting of Iranian comments on YouTube, Facebook,, Twitter,…
6. Why does the BBC select only "anti-national" news and unpleasant events from independent countries and distort and interpret the news for its own benefit and that of its allies by magnifying it many times over?
7- Why has BBC Farsi on YouTube with the most viewers removed the comments from the subscribers?
8. Why does the BBC share a photo of any movie on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, but has denied the subscriber the opportunity?
9. Why does the BBC "block" the subscriber with "restriction on sharing" and the "opposition" after inserting a link by colluding with "Facebook, Instagram and YouTube" and it is even shameful that it deletes the dissenting comments? "So that if the authorities visit, he will be instilled with the opinion that everyone agreed with the BBC"?
10. Why are human rights organizations, the United Nations and the World Health Organization not working against the BBC? Are these international organizations under the influence of the government supporting the BBC?
11. It is obvious that the BBC causes psychological damage to people by producing fake and negative news, and reduces people's lives with stress.
So why is the BBC and the "BBC sponsoring government" not responsible and accountable, and basically how can people repay the damage?
12. How can the BBC's dual standard of "freedom of expression" insult, defame, slander, sanction and even threaten billions of people, but if anyone is talking about "Zionism and the Holocaust" created by European governments themselves?
Criticize In addition to blocking, subscribers are deprived of all kinds of social services and with the collusion of your government you sentence him to months in prison and fined thousands of pounds?
