Let’s add
Earlier, the SBGS spokesman said in a comment to UNN that the reserve forces of law enforcement are already in virtually every region of Ukraine bordering Belarus.
However, he noted that it is too early to say that the situation tends to localize.
On November 8, the situation on the Polish-Belarusian border worsened. Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said the country had prepared troops along the border due to the tense situation with migrants. A large group of illegals tried to break into the country. Shots were heard at the border. Belarusian border guards said they were heard from the Polish side.
On the night of November 10, two groups of migrants invaded Poland from Belarus and detained them.
On November 10, Belarus announced an increase in air defense forces on the border with the EU. Then there were several more assault attempts. On November 16, migrants behaved aggressively, approaching the border, throwing stones at Polish security forces, injuring several.
To avoid the influx of migrants from Belarus, Ukraine will strengthen the protection of the state border with the neighboring country. According to Interior Minister Denys Monastyrskyi, the most vulnerable areas of the Ukrainian-Belarusian border will be reinforced by additional units of the State Border Guard Service, the National Police and the National Guard. It is a question of 8,5 thousand security officers.
In late August, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia accused Belarus of using illegal migrants as weapons in the so-called hybrid war against the EU.
As part of the fight against the flow of illegal migrants, Poland has begun construction of a fence on the border with Belarus.
