Funeral Held For Yemeni Migrant Who Died In Polish Forest

BOHONIKI, POLAND - NOVEMBER 21: Mourners and members of the local community pray during the funeral of Mustafa Mohammed Murshed Al-Raimi, a 37-year-old Yemeni asylum-seeker who died in a Polish forest after crossing into the country from Belarus, on November 21, 2021 in Bohoniki, Poland. Bohoniki, which is just outside the red zone of the Polish-Belarus border, is home to a Muslim Tatar community who have recently buried several migrants who died while trying to reach the European Union from Belarus. Poland and other western countries accuse the Belarusian government of creating a crisis by bringing thousands of migrants - mostly from the Middle East - to the country's border with Poland, promising an easy route to the European Union. The crisis appeared to have eased somewhat this week as large numbers of migrants were relocated to a shelter away from the border crossing, and several hundred were repatriated to Iraq by plane. But countless migrants remain inside Belarus hoping to find a route west through Poland, a journey that has proved deadly for some. (Photo by Maciej Moskwa/Getty Images)
