Minsk: Opposition blogger Igor Losik on Monday ended a hunger strike that he began 42 days ago while in custody on charges of organising anti-government riots in Belarus. Losik was detained last June and accused of using his popular channel on the Telegram messenger to incite riots ahead of the August presidential election. "I decided to stop the hunger strike. Why did I do it? Definitely on my own will... I was simply shocked by the unbelievable wave of solidarity," Losik said in an open letter shared online.
