I don't have an eye for uniforms, so I can't comment on whether they're Polish soldiers. I got it from here.

The origin of this photo is also easily found on the Internet. Google photo search tells us the following: this is the deportation of Ukrainians by the Polish army from Bialystok region, which after the Second World War went to Poland.
