Alexander Laubert, 18, a student poses for a photo Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2020 on crutches due to a broken knee after being beaten by police during a protest in Minsk, Belarus. Wary at first, Laubert eventually opened up about two days of being beaten, trampled on, nearly suffocated and doused in gasoline before volunteers finally brought him to a hospital for treatment and a leg cast. Instead of cowing him, though, the experienced emboldened him. (AP Photo/Evgeniy Maloletka)
