The border guard is on high alert – The method of traffickers and Turkish military guards
Another group of irregular immigrants, 20 people in them Psathades Evros, were rounded up by the Greek authorities today Monday, as reported by SKAI’s envoy to the region, Christos Nikolaidis.
According to the SKAI reporter, who cites sources with knowledge of the matter, it is an idiosyncratic one “cat and mouse game”.
In the last few hours, many different immigrant groupsguided by traffickers, but also by Turkish military guards, run through the areas of the Evros from Nea Vyssa to Psathades in places with very low water levels due to the summer, and where they find unguarded areas they attempt to cross into Greek territory.
When they see patrols, whether from ELAS, the army or Frontex, they turn back, and with the kind cooperation of the Turkish authorities, they look for another point in order to cross into Greek territory. The border guard remains on high alert.
The prime minister convened a general meeting on the issue of migrant trafficking on the Evros islands earlier in the afternoon Ioannis Sharmas in the Maximos Palace. In a statement yesterday, the caretaker government indicated that it has approached the Turkish government to coordinate border authorities and prevent illegal crossings.
The Acting Minister of Citizen Protection is going to Thrace on Tuesday. Tomorrow the minister will go to Thessaloniki, Xanthi and Komotini, while on Wednesday he will go to Evros in the shadow of the mobility of groups of irregular migrants on Turkish territory opposite the fence and the release of dozens of migrants from an islet in the Marasia region.
Yesterday evening, the port authority proceeded to stop an inflatable speed boat and arrest its 40-year-old foreign operator in the sea area of Mithymna on Lesbos.
The Mithymna Port Authority confiscated a mobile phone and an eight-centimeter knife. According to the 40-year-old’s statement, he transported eight foreigners for a monetary fee, who are wanted by the relevant Port Authority as well as the Police Directorate of Lesvos.
