The Bogdanovich family of publishers—a married couple, Elena and Vaclav, and their daughters, Antonina and Victoria —were detained in Minsk, along with a mass arrest of book publishers and distributors. Law enforcement officers raided the employees of both active and closed publishing houses.
It was later revealed that Elena and Antonina had been released. All that was known about Victoria was that she was serving an administrative sentence; whether she was subsequently released is unknown.
On March 3, 2026, a coalition of print publishers, including the Kamunikat.org Foundation, Lohvinau Publishing House, and Andrei Yanushkevich Publishing, was added to the Ministry of Internal Affairs' updated list of "extremist groups." Victoria's father, Vaclav Bogdanovich, was also named in connection with the group. The publishers' websites and social media accounts were also added.
