“Of course, we hope that all the rights of the detained Russian citizens will be fully respected,” he said.

Peskov said that the Russian side at the moment "has incomplete information about what happened." 

“Today our ambassador communicates with the Foreign Ministry and with colleagues in Minsk, so we expect that as a result of this communication, as well as through the channels of communication between the special services, we will receive comprehensive information about what happened,” the press secretary said.

Earlier, the Belarusian Foreign Ministry asked the Russian ambassador to the country, Dmitry Mezentsev, for an explanation of the purpose of finding the Russians detained on Belarusian territory.

On July 29, the state Belarusian news agency BelTA announced the arrest of 33 Russians in Belarus. Mezentsev later commented on this information.
