Let us remind you that one of the well-known participants in the protests and strikes of miners in Salihorsk, Yury Korzun, held a heroic single protest in the mine on September 10. He told the management that he was going down and refused to rise to the surface, after which he handcuffed himself at a depth of 305 meters. The miner's main demand was an end to the violence and the resignation of Lukashenka.

At the call of the Strike Committee, the Salihorsk miners went to a rally in support of their comrade.
