Illegal Migrants Kill Polish Border Guard with Spears

Migrants attempting to cross the Polish border from Belarus have been throwing makeshift spears and sticks at border guards, resulting in injuries and a fatality of a young Polish border guard, Sgt Mateusz Sitek. Polish officials suspect Russian involvement, viewing it as part of Vladimir Putin's hybrid warfare strategy. The weapons used indicate a new level of organization among the migrants, believed to be supported by Russia. This incident highlights the escalating tensions and violent confrontations at the border, with concerns about the involvement of private Russian militias like the Wagner Group in controlling migrant flows. The death of Sgt Sitek underscores the serious implications of the clashes and the growing complexity of the situation.
