Deputy Interior Ministry says round-up of illegal migrants is intended to ’send a signal‘ that instability in Turkey will not lead to fresh migration pressure on Bulgaria.
Hundreds of migrants have been arrested in special police operations over the last 24 hours on Bulgarian territory, inside the country and while trying to cross into Serbia illegally, the Ministry of Interior announced on Tuesday.
In Sofia, police have arrested 162 migrants without documents, including men, women and children, while 45 others have been prevented from crossing into Serbia in two different groups near the border towns of Kula and Bregovo.
