Five people were caught trying to illegally cross the Polish-Belarusian border. On the Belarusian side, people tried to destroy elements of the technical barrier protecting the Polish border. The events took place in the section protected by the Border Guard Post in Czeremcha. Movement along the barrier is always monitored by the monitoring system and Polish services. Reports say migrants continue to look for opportunities to cross the border illegally.
