Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko has been seen carrying a rifle in a dramatic show of defiance against massive protests demanding his resignation.

More than 200,000 people rallied in the country’s capital Minsk against the president, as a huge outburst of dissent spread across the country following a disputed presidential election two weeks ago.

The election handed Lukashenko his sixth term in office with 80% of the vote, though several countries, including the UK, have disputed the ‘fraudulent’ results.
