Tensions are high in Belarus’ capital Minsk as several thousand protesters defied police attempts to prevent a rally over a disputed election.
Protesters moved in to the main streets after special forces closed off October Square, the site of a tented protest camp cleared away by police on Friday.

Several hundred police in full riot gear have been pushing back the crowd.
