Another group of illegal migrants was detained by Transcarpathian border guards

In Transcarpathia, border guards detained six illegal migrants trying to reach Hungary.  

Yesterday, during a patrol of the border, border guards of the Mukachevo detachment detained a group of illegal migrants, the press service of Mukachevo border detachment informs.

First, officers of the Border Guard Service department "Kosyno" detained one unknown person. The man was trying to overcome the barrage fence. The response team immediately arrived at the scene.                                                                                            

A few minutes later, at a distance of 90 meters from the state border, the border patrol detected and detained four men of non-Slavic appearance. During subsequent search operations, border guards detained another offender.

It turned out that they all were traveling as one group, but, seeing the approaching flashlights, they scattered in different directions, to increase the chances of illegal border crossing. The foreigners had no documents on them, just reported that three of them were citizens of Iraq, two were citizens of India and one was a citizen of Syria. 

Ukrainian border guards informed their colleagues from Hungary about detection of illegal migrants.
