Images released by the Polish Defence Ministry appear to show migrants being detained in a large group by Polish service personnel. The Ministry has said: 'Tonight, an attempt inspired by Belarus was made to illegally cross the border in Dubicze Cerkiewne. A group of about 100 migrants was detained by the Polish services'. IMAGES
Police vans pass by and officers carry out checks on vehicles at a checkpoint at the entrance to the state of emergency zone near the Polish-Belarusian border, in Sokolka. Polish border guards, who are deployed along with the army and police, estimate up to 4,000 migrants are currently camped out on the frontier between Poland and Belarus in increasingly dire conditions and freezing temperatures.

Several hundred migrants gather behind barbed wire on the Belarusian side of the Polish-Belarusian border. For several months, thousands of migrants, encouraged by Alexander Lukashenko's regime, have been trying to cross the border illegally to enter the European Union. Poland has sent thousands of soldiers to the area, enforced a state of emergency in the region complete with a media blackout. It has also built a razor-wire fence and approved the construction of a wall. IMAGES
Hundreds of migrants wait to be processed by US authorities in Eagle Pass, Texas, after crossing the US-Mexico border. The state's Republican governor signed a bill on Monday that would allow state police to arrest and deport migrants who cross illegally into the United States from Mexico. The move by Governor Greg Abbott sets up a potential legal clash with the federal government, which generally sets and enforces immigration laws. IMAGES
Dozens of migrants attempt to reach the United States by swimming across the Rio Grande in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. Some then swim back to the Mexican side of the river after being warned away by Texas authorities. IMAGES
