Up to 200 took part in a street protest in downtown Minsk in the evening of October 11. The demonstrators walked from October Square to Independence Square where an unknown young man with a Russian flag approached the protesters. The protesters did not touch him but tried to walk him away from the site. The man was later surrounded by journalists. He tried to puch cameras from the hands of reporters, provoked people and threatened.
Some time after, the young man was approached by a plainclothes police officer whispered something into his ear. Shortly after, the provocateur folded the Russian flag and started runing towards an underground passage.
