Ministry of Internal Affairs of Poland: the country is experiencing the most difficult moment since the beginning of the crisis on the border of Belarus Belarus. This statement was made by the deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the republic, Blazhei Pobozhi, on the ministry's official Twitter page.
He said that the migrants are trying to storm the border. “This is the most difficult moment since the beginning of this crisis. Moreover, every next hour will become a more significant challenge for Polish services, government and politicians, “Pobozi wrote in a series of posts.
The department noted that there are now from several hundred to thousands of migrants at the border, in mostly men in their 30s. At the same time, Pobozi stressed that “thanks to the updated legislation on foreigners, Polish border service officers received an effective tool that simplified the return of migrants who illegally crossed the border to the Belarusian side.”
Earlier, Belarusian border guards announced the shooting from the Polish side.
On November 8, a group of migrants from the Middle East gathered at the Belarusian-Polish border. In Warsaw, they claim that the camp of migrants is guarded by Belarusian security forces. The Polish Interior Ministry said that they had stopped an attempt to break through the border.
The migration crisis on the border of Belarus and the EU countries began after President Alexander Lukashenko threatened to weaken control over the flow of refugees and drug trafficking. This happened against the backdrop of yet another aggravation of relations between Minsk and the West.
