Thousands of Belarusians came to the concert in Warsaw.

On March 16, a concert of Bi-2 was held in Warsaw, which was attended by thousands of Belarusians. The guitarist Shura (Aleksandr Uman) performed the song "My Rock 'n' Roll" together with Ksenia Zhuk from NaviBand.

Shura said from the stage, that he wrote this song in his native Babruisk in 1988 and asked the Belarusians in the hall to raise their hands. At least half of the audience reacted. "Long Live Belarus!" – the Bi-2 musician shouted from the stage and said hello to his fellow countrymen. The audience chanted "Long Live Belarus!" in response.

Bi-2 is a rock band formed in 1988 in Babruisk. The founders and permanent participants are Shura Bi-2 (guitar, vocals) and Lyova Bi-2 (main vocals). In 2023, the group members emigrated to Israel. On January 25, 2024, the entire Bi-2 band was detained by the Thai police. The Russian consul insistently demanded their extradition to Russia. Thanks to the intervention of international forces, it was possible to prevent their extradition.
