Violence increasing along Poland-Belarus frontier as migrants fight to penetrate deeper into Europe, authorities warn
A Polish soldier and multiple border guards were injured in attacks by violent migrants amid chaos along the border with Belarus, according to reports.
The Polish Border Guard released information about a string of incidents that unfolded during the overnight hours between Monday and Tuesday on the Belarusian frontier.
Migrants most likely hailing from outside Europe stabbed or slashed at least three officials, all of whom were hospitalized.
At approximately 4:30 a.m., a group of around 50 migrants tried to break into Poland, throwing sticks, tree branches, and stones at patrols.
A Polish Army soldier was stabbed in the ribs by a migrant who managed to jab a knife through a gap in the steel border fence.
Surveillance footage shows a border officer administering first aid to the soldier as migrants continue to lob projectiles at them.

“Almost every day, Border Guard officers face aggression from migrants trying to push across the Polish-Belarusian border. Attacks by foreigners on services protecting the Polish-Belarusian border have increased in recent months, and four border guards have been injured,” the Polish Border Guard announced in a press release following Tuesday’s attacks.
“Migrants throw stones, branches, bottles, carry dangerous tools ending in knives, shoot from slingshots. Also damaged are official vehicles, in which, among other things, windows are broken and bodywork is destroyed.”
Infowars has covered the ongoing crisis at the Poland-Belarus border extensively.
