As reported by the Border Guard, in response to numerous attacks on Polish border protection services, the Podlasie division of the Border Guard is currently securing and reinforcing several patrol vehicles with a specialist foil.

Migrants attacked the Border Guard.

Officers noted illegal crossings of the Polish-Belarusian border in sections patrolled by the Border Guard stations in Michałowo and Dubicze Cerkiewne. Among the migrants were individuals from Afghanistan, India, Iran, and Pakistan. Upon seeing Polish services, 25 foreigners retreated back to Belarus.

Meanwhile, in the town of Bagniuki, officers stopped a Renault car with Moldovan registration plates for inspection. Two citizens of Moldova were in the vehicle. It was determined that the travelers were headed towards the state border to pick up a group of illegal migrants.
