The attacks were controlled by Belarusian special services.

A group of aggressive migrants tried to force their way across the Polish border near Szudziałowo in Podlasie. According to the Polish border service, the illegal migrants were throwing stones, metal pipes and firecrackers in the direction of the officers. Everything happened under the supervision of the Belarusian authorities, reports tvp.info.

Press secretary of the Polish Border Guard Anna Michalska informed that on Monday 134 attempts to cross the border were made; 33 orders to expel illegal immigrants from the territory of the Republic of Poland were issued. She also reported that two aggressive groups of migrants tried to break through the border.

The first incident occurred on Monday around 6 p.m. at the Mielnik border crossing point, where a group of 70 people were trying to get into Poland. Michalska said that they were throwing rocks in the direction of the Polish services and trying to blind the soldiers. She added that people in uniform, who were throwing stones, were also present there.

"Fifty-eight people got into Poland at a distance of several meters," Michalska reported. "That group included 52 Iraqis and six Turks, all of whom were "escorted to the border line."

The second incident occurred around 2:30 a.m. on Tuesday at an active border guard facility in Szudziałowo. Michalska said the group consisted of several people, but was very aggressive. First, they were throwing stones and pipes in the direction of the Polish services from the Belarusian side, and then they started throwing firecrackers. Michalska added that those people did not cross the border line.

Michalska also said that there were also attempts to cut the barbed wire during the incident. "We also noticed one person, it was probably a Belarusian soldier, who tried to cut the fence," she added. The spokeswoman reported that no one was injured in these incidents.
