Belarus: Lithuania shows scenes of soldiers pushing migrants across the border

See in the video: Belarusian border guards apparently push migrants across the border.

These pictures from Tuesday show the EU’s external border between Lithuania and Belarus. The video was shot and published by the Belarusian border protection agency. It is supposed to show a group of around 35 Iraqis on their way to the European Union. There are also women and children among them. Lithuanian officials are trying to stop the migrants. However, the refugees do not seem to have come to this place on their own. At least if you believe the border guards of Lithuania, because they also made a video of the scene from the opposite direction. And that shows Belarusian officials in full protective clothing including shields. They are said to have brought the migrants to the territory of Lithuania and also invaded Lithuanian territory, according to the border guards. Lithuania accuses Belarus of deliberately flying Iraqi migrants into Minsk and then taking them across the border to seek asylum in the EU in retaliation for the EU sanctions imposed on rulers Lukashenko and the country.
