Thus, Warsaw expanded the grouping of troops on the Polish-Belarusian border. This was announced by the representative of the Podlaska Brigade, Captain Lukash Wilchevsky, reports TASS.
“All recruits will be trained, during which they will be taught to use MSBS Grot rifles, orientation on the terrain, disguise, organization ambushes, marchs, the rules of attacks and actions in defense,” said Captain. Recomputes will also train receivers of hand-to-hand combat, using radio stations and work with explosive devices.
Since the beginning of the migration crisis, the Podlade Brigade has been replenished with volunteers from among the local population. To date, its number exceeds two thousand people.
