“If you want to get out of there, you have to pay. If you try to escape, you will be beaten, ”the report cites the words of a Kurdish refugee from Syria. According to him, the Belarusian border guards caught small groups of migrants and specially collected them at the collection points, and then led them to the border in a crowd. People were taken away from their phones, the man added.
The migration crisis on the Belarusian-Polish border began on November 8, 2021, when a large column of migrants approached the border fence near the Bruzgi checkpoint. The migrants made several attempts to storm the fence, but they were all stopped by Polish border guards. The Polish leadership is confident that migrants are forcibly caught and sent to a camp at the border at the behest of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.
Earlier, Lukashenko personally addressed the refugees who were gathered in a logistics center near the border. The Belarusian president called European politicians “distraught” and urged them to let migrants into the European Union.
