One of the leaked calls: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlekKNIj90A (Part 1/3, rest on same channel)

I don't speak Russian, but it clearly looks like government photos and sounds like a phone conversation at least.

Essentially they are planning safari on protesters. Plan is something like following: women will be a bait who will lure protesters out of their homes by vandalizing symbols of Belarusian protest and militia will cover the bait by violently detaining those who will come out to protect the symbols.

Woman is Lukashenka's press-secretary and man is a commander of Belarusian Militia Special Purpose Squad(that's responsible for the most horrible acts of violence in Belarus since 9th Aug 2020 presidential election day).

Thanks! Can you translate part 2 and 3 too? There was some talk about the election in there I think.

Sure.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTyFi4GEv-Q - this one is interesting cause they are talking with the same woman and Dmitry Shakuta(former or present MMA fighter I suppose) who's related to Roman Bondarenko's murder(exact evidence is hard to acquire as Belarus is judicial grey zone currently). As another commenter writes below they are agreeing to be in contact directly and the commander of militia basically recites his mobile number.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbHVt8-4dE4 - last part is just a confirmation and further details being discussed at a later time. But it's also nastiest one cause woman is using a phrase "We don't need stripes, we need heads". For extra context protesters were marking fences in their districts with stripes with national symbols on them. So the phrase means that we don't care about the symbols, it's just a way to lure protesters out of their homes. Also she's literaly using word hunting and jokes that protesters are in red list like animals. Such attitude shows her cruel and inhuman personality in its best.

I did not catch anything about election in 3 parts. Part 2 and 3 they are basically agreeing on times and places and discussing methods of their agents provocateurs

The whole thing is an aftermath of political crysis started after completely falsified election. They are working to strike terror(also they're definitely having fun doing so) into residents of a certain neighbourhood that's especially active protesting against Lukashenka's regime by detaining and repressing whoever expresses any opinion against such practices.

Oh for sure, what I am saying is that they do not discuss election per se.

Yes, you're right. See the dates of the recordings. It's November 2020. The election has long passed but the discontent is still rumbling to this day.

These seem to be high-rank officials. Why do they do that kind of dirty work?

Well, a press secretary is a big figure in an informational autocracy so the militia commander makes a favor to press-secretary to prove his loyalty to Lukashenka. She in turn has some fun and also proves her loyalty to him.

> come out to protect the symbols

How do you think they would be protecting the symbols?

Every person chooses for themselves.
