Poland's PM Raises Alarm Over Wagner Mercenaries Approaching NATO Border

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has warned that a group of around 100 Russian Wagner mercenaries is moving closer to Poland's border through Belarus. The mercenaries may falsely present themselves as Belarusian border guards to assist migrants in crossing into the European Union. Poland has accused Belarus of facilitating illegal migration and engaging in "hybrid warfare." The Suwalki Gap, a strategic region between Belarus and Kaliningrad, is of particular concern. Poland, Lithuania, and Latvia are considering jointly closing their borders with Belarus if incidents involving Wagner mercenaries occur.
