Since the beginning of the migration crisis, the bodies of at least five illegal migrants have already been found on Polish territory near the border with Belarus.

Several thousand migrants have accumulated on the border of Belarus and Poland in the past few weeks, hoping to get to the EU countries.

The Polish authorities have strengthened border security, pulled the military and thwarted attempts by illegal immigrants to enter the country, blaming Minsk for the migration crisis. All these accusations are denied by Belarus, claiming that Poland is forcibly expelling migrants.
