Many Iraqis and Syrians fleeing the Middle East try to enter the European Union via Belarus
Thank you, Omar, for your kind words. I am glad you liked it
Thank you, Patrick, for your interest. In this particular story, I highlighted a humanitarian crisis at the Belarussian border with Poland, which occurred around 2020-2021, when a large number of Iraqi refugees were smuggled into the border as they attempted to flee the Middle East unrest. They were lead by the Belarussian authorities to believe they could cross the border into Poland, only to realize Poland was not allowing such a move. They ended up getting stuck between two words as they clashed.

What is the connection between Belerussian refugees and the Middle East?
