Officials reported a delay in the release of additional Belarusian prisoners. The postponement concerns individuals whose freedom had been part of earlier discussions. An opposition group said the delay prevents several people from leaving the country as planned. The group did not provide a revised timeline for the releases.

Earlier agreements had outlined steps for freeing certain detainees. Those steps included coordination between multiple parties on timing and conditions. The current delay follows the completion of some prior releases. No official reason for the postponement was stated in the report.
