The attack came in the early hours of the morning, shortly before dawn. Dozens of illegal #migrants on the Belarusian side of the border with #Poland hurled a volley of makeshift spears at Polish border guards on the other side over and through a five-metre high steel fence. One member of the border force held one of the weapons to camera - a tree branch with a steel blade taped to the top. Though crude, the weapon show a new level of organisation and intent from the waves of migrants arriving at the gates of the EU. It also shows the lengths that #Russia and Belarus are going to in their quiet hybrid war with Europe. Several soldiers were injured and one was killed that day - Sgt Mateusz Sitek, a 21-year-old from the village of Nowy Lubiel.
