'People are united by one idea, to get rid of violence and brutality'

For the fourth Sunday since a disputed election in Belarus a vast crowd has protested in the capital and other cities. The demonstration in Minsk calling for President Alexander Lukashenko to go was peaceful, but as crowds thinned out the security forces intervened. Videos show men in uniform and in plain clothes beating protesters and detaining them. Nastia and Alex are both teachers in Minsk. First of all, what was the atmosphere like today?
