Over 1,000 marched in the streets of Minsk... protesting the nation's severe currency crisis and continuing economic problems.
President Alexandre Lukashenko's police cracked down hard on this media inspired protest...arresting an estimated 450.
Cars also joined the protest, driving slowly down the main thoroughfare, honking horns.
For weeks, social networking sites there have called for new protests.
