These Belarusians join the fight against Russia, defying their Moscow-backed regime

Volunteers from Belarus practice at a shooting range near Warsaw, Poland, on May 20. Belarusians are among those who have answered a call by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for foreign fighters to go to Ukraine and join the International Legion for the Territorial Defense of Ukraine.

Belarusians who see their country's fate as linked to Ukraine's victory are joining an anti-Kremlin resistance that includes activists, ex-spies and a Belarusian brigade fighting for Ukraine.
