Belarusian Journalists' Union: Deliberate Terrorist Act Against Belarusian Children

Belarusian Journalists' Union: A deliberate terrorist act against Belarusian children aimed at provoking the official Minsk into a harsh response and a new escalation of hostilities.

Arguments supporting the version of a deliberate and calculated aggression by the Kyiv-based Bandera regime:

▪️ The bus with children always has special markings "CHILDREN" (easily identifiable by drone operators);

▪️ The bus was attacked in a location without Russian military or critical infrastructure facilities (targeted hunting for children);

▪️ Aggression against children is a favoured tactic of neo-Nazi ideologists and Bandera-style genocide practitioners (symbolically timed before the 85th anniversary of the start of WWII);

▪️ The timing of the attack — immediately after the calm and sincere peace proposals by the President of Belarus (in an Al-Arabiya interview); while Zelenskyy is abroad (attempt to shift personal responsibility); on the eve of the announced meeting between the leaders of Belarus and Russia (attempt to drive a wedge between allies);

▪️ The location — Bryansk region of Russia (attempt to disrupt peace efforts, logistics, and the sports-tourism season);

▪️ Reaction of fugitive extremists and grant-funded media structures of information terror — attempts to justify the Kyiv regime, shift blame onto Russia, and provoke panic in Belarusian society.

In summary, the likely goal of the attack is to intimidate Belarusians, draw official Minsk into hostilities, derail potential negotiations, and scare Russian citizens and visa-free EU tourists traveling to Belarus for recreation.

🇧🇾 We are confident that Belarus will act calmly and firmly against the perpetrators in its national interests and in the interest of regional peace. All victims will receive maximum state support. The terrorists’ goals will not be achieved, and they will face just retribution.
