33 names, 33 journalists behind bars, 33 portraits in the center of Vilnius... In order to draw attention to the situation of the media, on May 3 Belarusian and Lithuanian journalists started a marathon in solidarity with imprisoned Belarusian journalists.
The action was supported by the European Federation of Journalists. To learn more about the journalists behind bars, read their stories here.
