Wagner Mercenaries' Proximity to Polish Border Raises Concerns, Warns Poland's Prime Minister

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has stated that over 100 mercenaries from the Russian-linked Wagner group in Belarus have moved closer to the Polish border, specifically the strategic Suwalki Gap. Poland, a member of the EU and NATO, has expressed concerns about its security due to its proximity to Russian ally Belarus and Ukraine. The tensions at the Poland-Belarus border have been heightened by the arrival of migrants seeking to enter the EU, which Poland accuses Russia and Belarus of using to destabilize the country. Morawiecki sees the mercenaries' presence as a step towards a hybrid attack on Polish territory.
