This is the best summary I could come up with:
On Monday, the NGO Grupa Granica (Border Group) - which aids refugees and migrants in Poland - said it was supporting the 22-year-old Syrian man in hospital, providing him with legal and psychological assistance.
Piotr Czaban, a Polish humanitarian activist, first reported on Saturday that a Syrian man had been shot, with “the bullet getting stuck in his spine”.
The unnamed soldier could face up to three years in prison, possibly increasing to eight if the man is severely injured or dies, for careless handling of weapons and unintentionally causing injury to another person, PAP - a state-run Polish news agency - report.
Belarussian officials have been accused of cutting holes in border fences and pushing large groups of migrants through, as well as guiding them to weak spots, amid soaring geopolitical tensions.
Polish border guards have been repeatedly accused of violently pushing migrants back into Belarus - a practice that is illegal under international law.
Activists say the body of the man found on the Belarus border is the 55th confirmed fatality during what has been called Europe's forgotten migration crisis.
