Local residents informed the district inspector of BS “Velykyi Bereznyi” about appearance of unfamiliar persons. Detainees left about 1 km to reach the border. Two citizens of Afghanistan and one citizen of Bangladesh did not have any documents, however, two of them assured the law enforcement agents that they were 16 and 17 years old. Detainees explained that they made their way to EU countries to improve their life. Almost reaching the border, the smugglers left them and being hungry and physically exhausted they had to search the way themselves. Soon, they were detained by the border guards.
