Belarusian hostage's aunt: This is Sviatlana
The aunt confirms the woman in the video is Sviatlana and shares with Euroradio about her last conversation with her niece.
“It’s her, I am sure,” Iryna Markiyanovcih who contacted with Svyatlana rather often said.
Euroradio: How did she reach Syria? There is a civil war now.
Aunt: To tell you the truth, I do not know. She usually went to Lebanon, not Syria.
Euroradio: Svyatlana says she is a spy in the video. What did she do abroad?
Aunt: This is utter nonsense. Like many other girls, she worked in hotels. She left at the beginning of May. We talked by phone once a month. We did not discuss much, Svyatlana is a loner she lives on her own.
Euroradio: What did you talk about last time?
Aunt: She said she was fine. And I said that we were oaky too.
