Latvia's defence minister ordered the army to help guard the Baltic country's border with Russian ally Belarus on Tuesday, after 96 attempts by illegal immigrants to cross in 24 hours.
Latvia has "information about a possible increase in hybrid threats", the Border Guard said in a statement. Belarusian authorities were increasingly involved in organising the flow of illegal immigrants, it said.
Lukashenko has said several times that he has been restraining Wagner fighters who want to attack Poland.
