On 28 September 2021, Andrei Zeltser, a Belarusian IT worker, was killed in Minsk by members of the State Security Committee of the Republic of Belarus (Belarusian KGB) who conducted a raid on his apartment. After a door breaching, a shootout took place, in which Zeltser fatally shot Dmitry Fedosyuk, a KGB agent from the Alpha Group unit.[1] Zeltser was subsequently killed by the KGB.[2][3] Zeltser was subsequently called a "terrorist" by the government.[4] According to the state-owned Belarusian Telegraph Agency, "members of an extremist group with ties to the opposition, supposedly, lived in the apartment", referring to Zeltser, 31, and his wife, who was arrested.[5][6]
More than a hundred people were detained in the aftermath of the event, in connection to social media comments, and some were subsequently given prison sentences.
