The Center for Countering Disinformation reported that the information about harsh measures during checks of Ukrainian citizens at the Polish-Ukrainian border is fake. According to the portal 'Hlavkom', hostile TG channels spread information that Polish border guards force Ukrainians to undress 'to their underwear', searching for 'prohibited tattoos' and checking phones.

The Center noted that the images of informational stands that are being circulated were altered by graphic editors and contain many errors, indicating a forgery. The main goal of disinformation is to sow distrust between Ukrainians and Poles, aimed at undermining Ukrainian-Polish relations.

Polish President Karol Nawrocki vetoed the law on assistance to Ukrainian citizens, which could lead to inconveniences for Ukrainians who are not workers in the country. The Ukrainian Embassy in Poland is consulting on this issue. At the same time, the Polish president's veto will not affect the internet provider Starlink in Ukraine, whose financial support is ensured by the country.

The Ukrainian Ambassador to Poland, Vasyl Bodnar, warns that Ukrainians returning home after the war may face significant challenges such as social tension and emotional alienation.
