Russian pro-Putin bikers turned back at Polish border
5 hours ago Europe
Ten bikers said to be from the Russian nationalist Night Wolves group have been turned back at the Polish border with Belarus.
The bikers had planned to cross Poland on their way to Berlin to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the end of World War Two in May.
The Polish government described their plans last week as "provocative".
The Night Wolves back Russian President Vladimir Putin's Ukraine policy - something strongly opposed by Poland.
