The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Poland announced that in case of deterioration of the situation in the region, evacuation from the territory of Belarus may prove to be extremely difficult or completely impossible due to possible restrictions at border crossing points.

Diplomats warn of border closures and "other unforeseen circumstances."

Citizens who continue to stay in the country are advised to use all available means to leave – both commercial and private.

We recommend citizens of the Republic of Poland who are on the territory of the Republic of Belarus to leave its territory by available commercial and private means
