LIVE: Thousands of migrants still hopeful of crossing Belarus-Poland border

Ruptly is live from the Belarus-Poland border on Wednesday, November 17, as thousands of migrants remain in the area in the hope of reaching the European Union through the Bruzgi crossing point.  Belarusian authorities set up a temporary shelter at a logistics centre in the village of Bruzgi, near the Polish border, on Tuesday, to accommodate migrants who have been stranded in the area for the past several weeks. Earlier on Tuesday, Polish forces used tear gas and water cannons to disperse migrants gathered at the closed Bruzgi-Kuznica border crossing. Migrants proceeded to respond by throwing projectiles, resulting in the injury of nine Polish police officers.
