Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox civilian attack The 2008 Minsk bombing took place just after midnight on 4 July 2008, in Minsk, Belarus and wounded 54 people.[1] The explosion happened near the Hero City monument at a concert to celebrate Belarus' independence.[2] The concert had been attended by Belarus' President, Alexander Lukashenko, who was not hurt and whose officials said was not the target.[3]

A second, larger bomb was discovered before the blast.[1]

No clear motive for the blast has been revealed. However, Belarusian authorities detained four members of the White Legion, a nationalist group, in the days following the attack.[1] The probable perpetrators of the explosion were detained during the investigation of the 2011 Minsk Metro bombing.
