On Wednesday, November 22 in the evening, an incident occurred at the border post in Cherems. It is known that foreigners tried to destroy technical equipment used to guard the Polish border.

The corresponding notification was received from the Polish Border Guard Service. It is known that this happened on the border with Belarus.

Illegal entry prevented

The warning system on the electronic barrier went off. This allowed border guards to respond quickly and effectively. Consequently, the attempt to illegally enter Polish territory was prevented.

Illegal immigrants wanted to cross the border illegally: watch the video

As Polish border guards write, over the past 24 hours , 28 illegal immigrants were not allowed into Poland. We are talking about citizens of Egypt, Iraq and Iran. It is interesting that some of them, as soon as they saw the border patrols, returned to the territory of Belarus.

That's not all. Not far from the Plaska border checkpoint , a group of 15 illegal immigrants tried to break through the border.

And for more than a week , another 112 migrants were turned away at the border with Poland and Belarus. Mostly it was about citizens of Ethiopia and Somalia.

Interestingly, in October, Polish border guards are increasingly detaining illegal migrants attempting to cross the border. And they have Russian visas.

Meanwhile, Polish carriers continue to block checkpoints with Ukraine. It is known that traffic was restricted at the last fourth checkpoint.

Thus, carriers blocked the Medika-Shegini checkpoint. As noted in the State Tax Service, as a result of this, traffic both to exit to Poland and to enter Ukraine is complicated.

Previously, the corresponding checkpoint may be blocked from November 23 to 26. At the same time, the State Tax Service noted that there should be no obstruction to the movement of buses and passenger vehicles.

Be that as it may, since November 6, Polish carriers have blocked 4 checkpoints between Ukraine and Poland:

• “Grebnoye – Rava-Russkaya”,
• “Korchevaya – Krakovets”
• “Dorogusk – Yagodin”,
• “Medica – Shegini”.

In a commentary to hromadske, the State Border Service noted that as of the morning of November 23 , about 1,400 trucks were blocked at the Medika-Shegini checkpoint. On the other three, about 2,600 cars are expected.
