Belarusian journalists solidary with French colleagues


The Belarusian Association of Journalists (BAJ) showed their support to the French colleagues after the tragic death of 12 journalists from Charlie Hebdo, a satirical Parisian newspaper.

They were attacked by gunmen on January, 7. One of the latest tweets on Charlie Hebdo’s feed was a cartoon of the Islamic State militant group leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The nnewspaper’s offices were fire-bombed in November 2011 when it published a cartoon of Muhammad under the title “Charia Hebdo”.
