An operational plan to prevent the illegal entry of immigrants from Evros has been drawn up by the Ministry of Citizen Protection, which will be implemented in the event that pressures increase.
On Thursday, another 1,500 illegal immigrants were prevented from entering the country.
In the meantime, two days after the meeting of the Minister of Citizen Protection with his Bulgarian counterpart in Alexandroupolis, there is an “emergency situation”, as characterized by officials of the ministry, also on the border of Turkey with Bulgaria, due to the pressures.
As the same sources report, the “Akritas” plan is moving forward, but there are also alternative plans within it:
All the forces of EL.AS have already been informed. to be absolutely alert as to where they should be found if necessary.
Characteristic is the fact that forces from eastern Macedonia and Thrace are on alert in case Turkey escalates its movements.
Night patrols and three EL.AS drones have increased. with thermal cameras throughout the night they provide an image of the operational centers in Evros.
In fact, as officials of the Ministry of Citizen Protection report, the return of the Prime Minister from New York is expected and within the week there will be announcements from Minister Takis Theodorikakos, possibly for the extension of the fence.
However, indicative of the situation is that since the beginning of the year, 63 Turkish slave traders have been arrested, when in the whole of 2021 the arrests amounted to approximately 64.
