Poland-Belarus Border: How Many Migrant Bodies Lie Undiscovered in the Forests?

The Polish authorities have absented themselves from responsibility for migrants dying on the border with Belarus, leaving NGOs and activists to find and identify bodies lying in the forest areas.
Volunteer rescuers are the only ones looking for migrants missing on Poland’s border with Belarus. Since the migration crisis on the border exploded into life in 2021, it has happened that a random walker comes across the corpse of a migrant and the Polish authorities are contacted; otherwise, they have left it to us to deal with this terrible situation.
