THIS is the horror moment migrants trying to get through the Polish border throw sharp spears at border guards.
Dozens of migrants reportedly from Africa and the Middle East try and overwhelm soldiers at the border with Belarus as the WW3 flashpoint heats up.

New clashes come just weeks after one Polish soldier was killed by a migrant after the thug reached through the fence and stabbed the guard in the chest.
The latest chilling footage shows dozens of migrants standing in a muddy field flinging missiles at soldiers.
Smoke wafts across the battlefield as the soldiers stand their ground and return fire at the migrants – all wearing black coats and face coverings.
The outnumbered soldiers, who hold shields and batons, can be heard yelling “f*** you, m************” at the migrants, Visegrad24 reported.
Following the assault, Poland has today banned movement along parts of the border with its Russian-aligned neighbour.
Migrants are increasingly being used as a weapon by Russia against the West leading Poland to put up the metal barrier in 2022.
The viscous Wagner group and other Russian militias are pushing the migrants towards the border as a cruel form of hybrid warfare, the Telegraph reported.
Elina Valtonen, the Finnish foreign minister, even said Russia is “actively helping” migrants travel to the border.
According to Polish officials, about 90% of the migrants at Poland’s border have Russian visas, AP reported.
The Polish Border Guard have also released a photo of one crude spear that a migrant threw made of a knife and nails.
The knife blade is several inches long and sticks out the end of the stick with two nails either side of the blade in a makeshift deadly weapon.
One Polish soldier was killed in May by a migrant after he was stabbed in the chest.
Chilling footage released showed the soldier lying motionless on the ground next to a border fence as a medic gives him care.
As he receives medical attention, migrants throw spears through the fence at the vulnerable pair.
Eventually, reinforcements arrive to help the pair with a vehicle and other soldiers holding shields above their head to protect them.
That injured soldier later died on hospital from the stab wounds, the Polish military said.
“A young soldier, Mateusz, gave his life in the defense of Poland’s border,” Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on the social platform X.
“The motherland and his compatriots will never forget about this sacrifice. I extend words of deepest sympathy to his family,” Tusk wrote.
The Border Guard also said one soldier was stabbed in the face with a broken bottle.
Latest figures from the Polish Border Guard say there have been some 17,000 attempts at illegally crossing the border this year.
There are around 6,000 Polish army troops and 2,200 border guards patrolling the border with Belarus.
