Still unrest on the border between Belarus and Poland, where two groups of migrants managed to break through the border fence: this is confirmed by the Polish press agencies cited by the German media.
The breakthrough occurred in the two villages of Krynki and Bialowieza and, according to police sources, about 50 people were arrested.
With at least two thousand migrants stranded in a desperate attempt to enter the EU, with freezing temperatures and very few supplies of water and food, and with military tension rising to alert levels, the migratory crisis on the route of the EU is therefore becoming increasingly alarming. Eastern Europe, according to Brussels "orchestrated" by the autocrat Vladimir Lukashenko in retaliation against his sanctions, with a behavior defined by a "gangster regime".
THE ACCUSATIONS - In an emergency session at the Parliament in Warsaw, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki pointed the finger directly to the "godfather" of Minsk, Vladimir Putin, who just a few hours earlier had spoken on the phone with Lukashenko. Accusations flatly rejected by the Belarusian leader, who promises to "not give in" to Europe, in a tug-of-war that continues dramatically to be consumed on the skin of migrants.
"We know that the authorities of Belarus are helping migrants to destroy the border barriers. We see them bringing them the tools to cut the cables and destroy the fence," accused Warsaw, which meanwhile has strengthened the deployment of thousands of soldiers at the border. for push-backs and said she was ready to defend her territory, warning of a possible armed escalation.
THE DRAMA - In this tug-of-war, several hundred migrants, many of whom arrived from the Middle East on sponsored flights from Minsk, remain camped in precarious tents near the Polish border village of Kuznica, separated by a few meters and a wire barrier barbed by the cordon of the Warsaw security forces. Among them, also several women and children in dramatic conditions.
