Belarusian Family's Candlelit Dinner During Thunderstorm Goes Viral

A summer thunderstorm rolled through Belarus on July 6th, 2025, causing power outages in several areas. One family in a rural village, however, took the unexpected interruption in stride. "Grozа! Sveta net! Zato uzhin pri svechakh!" (Thunderstorm! No light! But dinner by candlelight!), the father jokingly captioned a short video of their candlelit dinner. The video, posted on social media, shows the family calmly enjoying their meal, highlighting their adaptability and positive attitude. A weather app screenshot shows the storm was expected to last for another two hours. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of preparedness during severe weather events and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The family's lighthearted approach to the situation is both endearing and inspiring.
