Andrei Sannikau’s has made a statement in connection with it: “The explosion in Pinsk and the casualties at the “Pinsk Wood” factory is a tragedy for the whole Belarus. I would like to sympathize with relatives and friends of those who died or were injured in the explosion.  I support Alyaksandr Milinkevich’s appeal to announce a Day of Mourning for the victims of this tragedy”.

Aleh Mihalevich has noted: “State mass media pay less attention to this incident than to an ordinary visit of the leader of the Russian communists Mr. Zyuganov. I am sure Mr. Zyuganov would be the first person to ask to announce national mourning if it happened in Russia.
