@ryanairpress: Our FR4978 flight has landed safely in Vilnius at 19:25hrs UK time (21:25hrs local time). Here is Ryanair's statement on today's diversion to Minsk Airport 👇 https://twitter.com/...
Liz Sly / @lizsly: UPDATE: Ryanair has now amended its statement on the abduction of the Belarus journalist from its plane in Minsk. “Nothing untoward” has been changed to “an act of aviation piracy.” https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
@gitanasnauseda: Unprecedented event! A civilian passenger plane flying to Vilnius was forcibly landed in #Minsk. Belarusian political activist & founder of @NEXTA_EN was on the plane. He is arrested. 🇧🇾 regime is behind the abhorrent action. I demand to free Roman Protasevič urgently!
@franakviacorka: BREAKING! The regime landed @Ryanair plane, which was flying from Athens to Vilnius,in order to arrest the famous Belarusian journalist Roman Protasevich. In Belarus, he faces the death penalty. Belarus has seized a plane,put passengers in danger, in order to repress an opponent https://twitter.com/...
Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya / @tsihanouskaya: The regime forced the landing @Ryanair plane in Minsk to arrest journalist and activist Raman Pratasevich. He faces the death penalty in Belarus. We demand immediate release of Raman, @ICAO investigation, and sanctions against Belarus. https://twitter.com/...
Ursula von der Leyen / @vonderleyen: It is utterly unacceptable to force @Ryanair flight from Athens to Vilnius to land in Minsk. ALL passengers must be able to continue their travel to Vilnius immediately and their safety ensured. Any violation of international air transport rules must bear consequences.
Thomas van Linge / @thomasvlinge: #Belarus: insta-stories by one of the passengers on board #FR4978. Protasevich apparently begged the @Ryanair crew not to hand him over. They told him “we have no choice, it's in Ryanair legal agreements” https://twitter.com/...
Ivan Nechepurenko / New York Times: Belarus Scrambles Jet to Force Down Plane Carrying Dissident
Tom Jones / Poynter: The Associated Press fired a reporter over social media use — and what it means for other news outlets
Insider: A routine commercial flight from Athens to Lithuania spiraled into a dramatic international incident that has world leaders outraged. Here's what happened, and why it's a huge deal.
Prime Minister GR / @primeministergr: The forced landing of a commercial plane to detain a journalist is an unprecedented, shocking act. We demand all passengers' immediate release. Tomorrow's #EUCO must address the need to step up pressure on Belarus. Enough is enough.
@ingridasimonyte: Passengers and crew of Ryanair flight en route from Athens to Vilnius have been put in danger - when forcibly landed in Minsk. We demand that the plane and passengers be allowed to fly to Vilnius immediately!
@krisjaniskarins: Concerning reports about forced landing of @Ryanair flight in Minsk and safety of all the passengers. We call for independent international investigation of this incident and immediate release of Belarusian opposition activist Roman Protasevich arrested on this flight.
Tadeusz Giczan / @tadeuszgiczan: What we know so far: KGB operatives boarded the plane in Athens this morning together with Roman Protasevich (he noticed dodgy-looking ppl taking pics of him at the gate). Then when the plane has entered Belarus airspace KGB officers initiated a fight with the Ryanair crew (1/2)
Christophe Deloire / @cdeloire: What happened may seem extravagant, in reality it is extremely serious. Hijacking a plane to arrest a journalist is pushing state treachery to the extreme. We expect from the international community sanctions commensurate with this perfidy. #PressFreedom #Belarus https://twitter.com/...
Michael Grothaus / Fast Company: Belarus condemned by global leaders after forced landing of Ryanair flight carrying journalist
Anne Applebaum / @anneapplebaum: The Belarus government has forced down a commercial airplane flying over its territory in order to arrest a passenger - an opposition journalist. This is state-sponsored hijacking. https://twitter.com/...
Sarah McLaughlin / @sarahemclaugh: Mrs. Lincoln took part in a night at the theater. Following a delay, she departed the theater safely after the performance. https://twitter.com/...
Kenneth Roth / @kenroth: A new low for Belarus President Lukashenko: his forces endanger a commercial jet flying over its territory to force it down and arrest a dissident journalist on board. https://www.nytimes.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Jim Sciutto / @jimsciutto: And the costs are clearly survivable. If Russia can poison and then jail its main opposition leader (and throw others out windows), Belarus calculates it can hijack a plane to arrest its own. And the cycle goes on. https://twitter.com/...

@anthony: Belarus secret service agents also believed to be on the diverted plane, says Ryanair's Michael O'Leary, calls it a state-sponsored hijacking https://www.wsj.com/...
Lionel Barber / @lionelbarber: A brazen act of air piracy which demands a response, starting with demands for the freeing of the targeted dissident blogger. Failure to act by EU will render all journalists and critics of Belarus fair game for the regime https://www.ft.com/...
Antony J. Blinken / United States Department of State: Diversion of Ryanair Flight to Belarus and Arrest of Journalist
Max Seddon / @maxseddon: Even by the standards of Belarus' crackdown, this story is nuts. Lukashenko personally forced an EU plane flying between EU capitals to land just so Belarus could arrest a dissident. A huge test for EU foreign policy. with @JamesShotter and @rmilneNordic https://www.ft.com/...
Agnes Callamard / @agnescallamard: Forcing a plane to land, on false pretense (a bomb threat), so that a journalist could be arbitrarily arrested: this is how far #Belarus is prepared to go in its repression. https://www.ft.com/...

Peter Weber / The Week: Lithuania is investigating Belarus for potential terrorism over ‘state hijacking’ of RyanAir jet
Denis MacShane / @denismacshane: Well said https://twitter.com/...
Brian Klaas / @brianklaas: This is a crucial point. What happened in Belarus is being watched closely by authoritarian despots around the world. Can you get away with forcing down a civilian aircraft with a fighter jet to arrest someone? The West needs to ensure that the answer is a resounding “No.” https://twitter.com/...
@nytimesworld: Belarus said its president gave an “unequivocal order” to make the plane, carrying Roman Protasevich, do a U-turn and land. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Bill Browder / @billbrowder: Ryanair's statement fails to mention that 6 people didn't continue on to Vilnius: Roman Protasevich, the Belarusian opposition journalist and his girlfriend who were detained, and four mysterious Russians who decided to end their trip on Minsk. https://twitter.com/...
Kenneth Roth / @kenroth: The Belarus pretext — to address a security threat rather than to arrest a dissident — isn't even credible for its forced down of the Ryanair jet. The jet was already nearer its destination in Vilnius than it was to Minsk where it was forced to land. https://www.nytimes.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Lotte Leicht / @lotteleicht1: Incredible. #Lukashenko's thuggish regime force a commercial plane -en route from one #EU state to another EU state- to land in #Belarus .. for the purpose of arresting a critical journalist on board the airliner. End impunity. #JusticeMatters. https://www.nytimes.com/...
NYT Graphics / @nytgraphics: Belarus sent a fighter jet to intercept a European airliner traveling through its airspace and ordered the plane to land, where a prominent opposition journalist aboard was seized, provoking international outrage. https://www.nytimes.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Abhijit Iyer-Mitra / @iyervval: Not unprecedented- in 2010 Iranians did the same to an Emirati plane from Dubai to Bishkek capturing & executing AbdolMalek Rigi. ZERO action against Iran. Notice despite the fury nobody is citing the exact law that prevents a first freedom flight from being forced to land https://twitter.com/...
@stavridisj: This is beyond outrageous. The international community must take decisive action to demonstrate that this behavior utterly unacceptable. The alternative is to surrender international air travel to the whim of dictators. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Chris Brown / @cbcchrisbrown: This is an incredible story that's unfolding ... https://twitter.com/...

Seva / @sevaut: I see people claiming that Lukashenko is acting on Putin's orders and folks, Lukashenko does not need anyone's orders to do insane idiotic things
@iyad_elbaghdadi: This is an extremely dangerous precedent for all journalists, activists, and journalists in the entire world. If this is allowed to pass without serious - and I mean *serious* - consequence, then it's no less dangerous than the precedent set by the 2018 Khashoggi murder
Rory Cellan-Jones / @ruskin147: Terrifying thread https://twitter.com/...
Ivo Daalder / @ivohdaalder: Outrageous actions by Belarus to force down civilian plane flying from Athens to Vilnius requires strong, concerted action by US and EU, including new sanctions and banning flights from Belarus. https://twitter.com/...
Simon Coveney / @simoncoveney: It is utterly unacceptable. This is an Irish Airline with EU citizens on board, forced to land in Minsk, while travelling between EU cities. A strong an united response from EU needed. EU inaction or indecision will be taken as weakness by Belarus. @dfatirl https://twitter.com/...
Lisa Nandy / @lisanandy: Intercepting a civilian airliner to detain a journalist is appalling, dangerous, and illegal. It imperils the freedoms of the air and freedom of speech. The Belarus government must face serious consequences. https://twitter.com/...
@edgarsrinkevics: This is completely unacceptable and contrary to the international law. Plane and ALL passangers must be released immediately and should continue to their destination. International reaction must be strong and effective https://twitter.com/...
Ray Dubicki / @raydubicki: Not that you needed more to pay attention to, but keep an eye on Belarus. Forcing down a civilian flight with a sham terrorist attack in order to arrest a journalist is bad stuff. https://twitter.com/...
Bojan Pancevski / @bopanc: A Ryanair airliner flying between two EU/Nato countries was hijacked and escorted by warplane on the personal order of Belarus's dictator to kidnap a dissident. How will Europe respond? https://www.nytimes.com/...
Bill Browder / @billbrowder: Correction: the Belarusian opposition journalist arrested on the commandeered Ryanair flight faces the death penalty! https://twitter.com/...
Matina Stevis-Gridneff / @matinastevis: Paul Rusesabagina, a Belgian national & Rwandan dissident accused of “terrorism” by Rwandan govt, was lured on to a Greek-operated private plane bound for Burundi. He was forcibly taken to Kigali, jailed instead. Lawlessness in the skies has precedent for EU citizens too.
Sara Nelson / @flyingwithsara: Deeply concerning reports coming out of a Belarus that the government there essentially hijacked a Ryan Air flight, forced it to land and then arrested a journalist onboard https://twitter.com/...
Vladislav Davidzon / @vladdavidzon: French, Belgian, Greek, Romanian and almost a hundred Lithuanian citizens have been taken hostage after Belarus hijacks plane in midair to capture a political opponent. https://twitter.com/...
Linas Linkevicius / @linkeviciusl: It just turned out that Pratasevich was detained at #Minsk airport. All this reckless and lawless ‘operation’ by 🇧🇾 special services deserves strong response, not just condemnation. One can't use airspace controlled by regime criminals. https://twitter.com/...
Bill Browder / @billbrowder: Truly shocking and unprecedented: Ryanair flight carrying Belarusian journalist critical of the regime forced to land in Minsk. The journalist was subsequently arrested and faces 15 years in prison. A true nightmare. This is why I'll never fly over Russia. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...

Luis Garicano / @lugaricano: Dear Mme @vonderleyen This kidnapping shows that the dictators-first Putin, then Erdogan, now Alexandr Lukashenko have discovered there is nothing behind our “we condemn” and our “we strongly condemn”. Let's save ourselves the words now, and take action. https://twitter.com/...

Radek Sikorski Mep / @radeksikorski: This is a dangerous precedent for travellers everywhere.

Alexander S. Vindman / @avindman: Good thread on events in Belarus. Yes, the Gov. of Belarus forcing down a Ryanair flight to detain an opponent is a Human Right violation.

Daniel Hamilton / @danielrhamilton: It doesn't just require a response on the part of the EU, @biannagolodryga; it requires coordinated action on the part of the *entire* international community to exclude Belarus from the global banking system, end debt financing and to impose ban on dual-use exports. https://twitter.com/...

Jillian Weinberger / @jbweinz: This makes me sad for several reasons, including: WNYC is filled with dedicated journalists who care about their city and our world.

Jill Filipovic / @jillfilipovic: Having some mixed feelings about this piece, but it's clear that one problem with the media industry (and many industries) is that the professional trajectory rewards talent with promotions to managerial roles. And a talented journalist is not necessarily a good manager. https://twitter.com/...
Jody Avirgan / @jodyavirgan: WNYC says it is reining in Gothamist for “an element of editorializing to its coverage that can be interpreted as bias.” If your *official* position is basically “we're worried about what bad faith critics will think” then you're in real trouble. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Will Saletan / @saletan: One of @benyt's best skills (or maybe it's a disposition) is looking into conflicts that seem largely ideological, and unearthing the peculiar personal dynamics that shape how they turn out. Culture matters, but you have to understand the people involved. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Dave Weigel / @daveweigel: “WNYC fired him for violating its anti-bullying policy, and he is starting a newsletter on Substack on Monday.” https://twitter.com/...

Alan Montecillo / @alanmontecillo: One of many 👀 details: 'On Sunday, the company's labor union filed a formal complaint against the station's editor in chief, Audrey Cooper, with the National Labor Relations Board, for reportedly waging a “coordinated and aggressive campaign” against her internal critics.' https://twitter.com/...
Kainaz Amaria / @kainazamaria: “Ms. Cooper sought to professionalize Gothamist away from its bloggy and irreverent roots, telling reporters to be less openly hostile to the New York Police Department in their reporting, two reporters said.” 👀 https://www.nytimes.com/...
Byron Tau / @byrontau: WNYC fired veteran journalist Fred Mogul for plagiarism on the grounds that he included a snippet of AP copy in an online story. At a staff meeting, stunned radio reporters explained this was standard practice on air. “Fire all of us,” one host said. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Charlotte Klein / Vanity Fair: Ousted AP Journalist Says She Was “Hung Out to Dry” By the News Agency
Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: By the way, NICE JOB AVOIDING CONTROVERSY, @AP! And we still need to hear directly from @SallyBuzbee. https://twitter.com/...
Steve Herman / @w7voa: “We demand more clarity from the company about why Wilder was fired. It remains unclear — to Wilder herself as well as staff at large — how she violated the social media policy while employed by the AP.” - @AP staff open letter regarding the firing of @vv1lder. https://twitter.com/...
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: Wow. Bravo to the @AP staffers across the country and globe who organized and signed this letter on @vv1lder's firing. “We need to know that the AP would stand behind and provide resources to journalists who are the subject of smear campaigns and online harassment.” https://twitter.com/...
Laurie Garrett / @laurie_garrett: AP reporter Emily Wilder came under attack from the @Stanford Young #Republicans Club for her personal statements about Palestinians, posted years ago. AP fired her, and the editor who did so is taking over the @washingtonpost . Now AP reporters worldwide are rallying to Wilder. https://twitter.com/...
Garance Franke-Ruta / @thegarance: Creating a playbook for supporting staff targeted by digital harassment campaigns is so important and something all news orgs that cover controversial subjects need to have in place. https://twitter.com/...
Darcy Costello / @dctello: “As journalists who cover contentious subjects, we are often the target of people unhappy with scrutiny. What happens when they orchestrate a smear campaign targeting another one of us?” https://twitter.com/...
Barbara Rodriguez / @bcrodriguez: I started my career at @AP and care deeply about it. But the news organization needs to do better. I'm proud of my former colleagues for demanding more equitable policies from AP on its social media practices and how it plans to support staff targeted by harassment campaigns. https://twitter.com/...
Dake Kang / @dakekang: 1/ The AP has a strict social media policy. I generally support having one and believe it is necessary for us to do unbiased journalism. Though some of Wilder's posts from her college days would likely have violated the policy, this policy isn't and shouldn't be retrospective. https://twitter.com/...
Jonathan Nicholson / @jnicholsonindc: A) this is VERY un-AP, where the old bulls tell tales of being consigned to the overnight “lobster shift” for looking at the buro chief sideways; and b) needed if AP is to shed its rep for stodginess and compete for best talent. https://twitter.com/...
Chris Rugaber / @chrisrugaber: I signed this, my name fell off somehow. A letter on the firing of a young journalist last week. https://twitter.com/...
Samer Al-Atrush / @sameralatrush: “We are also concerned about the ramifications of this decision for newsroom morale and AP's credibility. Wilder was a young journalist, unnecessarily harmed by the AP's handling and announcement of its firing of her.” https://twitter.com/...
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: The current policy is unsustainable. The employees know it. Any social media policy grounded in the attempt to manage “appearances” hands power to the culture warriors who want you dead, or injured. https://twitter.com/...
Elahe Izadi / @elaheizadi: Open letter signed by AP staff calls on AP to provide more clarity on why it fired Emily Wilder, and more. “Once we decide to play this game on the terms of those acting in bad faith, we can't win.” https://twitter.com/...
Jamil Dakwar / @jdakwar: Important letter that should be a wake-up call for other media organizations as well. If you want media freedom and independence to be protected you should support your journalists when they get smeared.
