Soldiers who defended the Polish-Belarusian border are facing severe repercussions. Former Defense Minister Mariusz Błaszczak revealed that these soldiers, who were involved in a critical incident at Dubicze Cerkiewne, have not only been arrested but also suspended from their duties and had their salaries halved.
Impact on Families
Błaszczak expressed concern on social media, highlighting that the consequences extend beyond the soldiers to their families. He criticized the decision, pointing out the unfair burden placed on the families of those who were merely fulfilling their duty to protect the nation’s borders.
Incident Details
The incident involved soldiers firing warning shots after being attacked by a large group of illegal migrants. Two soldiers were detained and have since been charged by the prosecutor’s office. This situation has sparked significant debate and concern about the treatment of soldiers under such circumstances.
