    <dct:description>&lt;p&gt;Since early August 2021, when the humanitarian crisis began to unfold on the Polish-Belarusian border, the&amp;nbsp;key actors who provide real help to migrants in borderland forests are activists and local residents. The role&amp;nbsp;of the latter cannot be overestimated, especially when they live and act in a state of emergency zone to which&amp;nbsp;no one else has access. This assistance has been met with both great appreciation from one &amp;ndash; large &amp;ndash; part of&amp;nbsp;society and with condemnation from another. Some of those who condemn it include public officials (both&amp;nbsp;members of the Border Guard and other law enforcement agencies) who threaten activists rescuing people&amp;nbsp;in border area with criminal prosecution. The two legal provisions that they most often refer to are: assistance&amp;nbsp;in facilitating illegal stay in Poland (Art. 264a &amp;sect; 1 of the Polish Criminal Code &amp;ndash; hereafter PCC) and&amp;nbsp;assistance in organising illegal border crossings (Art. 264a &amp;sect; 2 PCC). In this analysis, I would like to discuss&amp;nbsp;these regulations from the point of view of whether they permit punishment for granting humanitarian aid.&lt;/p&gt;</dct:description>
