A Belarusian human rights group reported on Friday that a German citizen has been sentenced to death in Belarus for terrorism and other charges related to an explosion aimed at undermining public order. Belarus remains the only country in Europe that still carries out executions, drawing widespread criticism for its practices.
According to reports, prisoners facing the death penalty in Belarus are notified that their appeals have been rejected, then forced to kneel before being shot in the back of the head shortly after.
