Is Gomel safe for solo female travelers?

Gomel is generally considered safe for solo female travelers. Like any city, it has areas that are safer than others and typical risks associated with traveling alone, especially at night. However, violent crime is relatively rare. It's more about petty crimes like pickpocketing. Always take precautions such as avoiding unlit and less populated areas at night, not showing off expensive belongings, and learning about your routes ahead of time. Also, keep in mind that English is not widely spoken, which could pose some minor difficulties.
