Lithuanian security forces try to covertly push migrants to Belarus

26 августа 2021

Here is another example of unjustified cruelty from European "democrats. Lithuanian law enforcers beat migrants and threaten them with weapons in an attempt to covertly push them out into Belarus. On August 25, two groups of refugees were taken to the border with our country. Like their Polish colleagues, the Lithuanian law enforcers chose the tactics of covert forced displacement of migrants in the dark time in several directions at once. Refugees told Belarusian border guards that they were caught and detained in the territory of Lithuania, then put in cars and driven to the border in groups at night. At the border, people were forced at gunpoint, including by aiming at their heads, to walk toward Belarus. It is known that special means such as tear gas were also used. 

According to the migrants, all of them requested protection in Lithuania and also asked the Lithuanian authorities for asylum. Directly at the border line, the soldiers of the Lida Border Guard Unit rendered assistance to the people.
