The Indian News Republic reported according to media outlets that Polish NGOs rescued two Syrian migrants late Sunday after their brothers crossed the border from Belarus into Polish territory about 40 km (24.85 miles).

Thousands of migrants traveled to Belarus hoping to cross the European Union, but found themselves trapped in a sub-zero border.

According to Reuters witnesses, when the doctor arrived near the village of Topchikawi, Brothers Cader (39) and Roas (41) from Homs were almost unconscious and too tired to speak. The names of the two brothers have not been published.

Agata Korodziej of the Polish charity Ocalenie Foundation said: “I couldn’t get any information other than my name, so I decided to call an ambulance.”

Ambulances and Polish police arrived at the scene immediately. Kolodziej said the brothers who spent four days in the woods were taken to the hospital.

Polish police said Saturday that the body of a young Syrian man was found near the border. As at least eight migrants have already died and harsh winter conditions are set, fears of the safety of others are increasing.
