In the spring of this year. The number of attempts to illegally cross the Belarusian borders with Lithuania, Latvia and Poland by immigrants from the Middle East, Africa and other regions has sharply increased. The European Union and its member states assert that this is the result of the deliberate actions of the regime of Alexander Lukashenka, which uses migrants in response to sanctions.

Under the amendment of the law, which made it possible to introduce this ban, for a specific period and under certain conditions, the Border Guard Commander will be able to allow other people, especially journalists, to stay in this area.
The ban was imposed at 183 sites in the Podlaskie and Lubelskie districts bordering the Belarusian border – the same areas where a state of emergency was previously in force.
