Belarusian paramedics treat refugees on border with Poland

An investigative team of Belarus’ Investigative Committee for Grodno Oblast is investigating a report on the push-back of foreign citizens from the territory of Poland into the territory of Belarus. On 29 October, Belarusian border guards found 15 refugees from Syria, Somalia, and Algeria. The victims said that they were all heading to Poland. On the Polish side, people in uniform beat them and pushed them back through an animal gate in the border fence into Belarus. The criminal actions by Poland are carefully documented. Belarusian paramedics provided medical assistance to the refugees.
