“There are repeated attacks on Border Guard patrols guarding the border with Belarus,” tweeted Zaryn. “There is a significant increase in attempts to storm the border. Foreigners are better organized and managed by Belarusian and Russian services.”
He also stated that officers from Belarus and Russia were on the “front lines.”
“Russia remains the main beneficiary of actions against Europe,” he continued. “Launching an illegal migration route against NATO was part of its aggressive operations against the Western world. Russia still counts on the possibility of destabilizing the region.”
In 2021, Poland’s border with Belarus came under huge pressure by thousands of migrants trying to get into the country.
