Border guards of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovsky Detachment have found an underground pipeline half a kilometer long at the border with Moldova.

While conducting operative actions, law enforcement officers found a plastic pipe with the remains of liquid with the characteristic smell of alcohol, which was underground at the territory of the border guard  division "Rozdilna" 500 meters from the border.

The pipeline was probably laid by offenders for illegal movement of alcohol from the territory of the so-called Transnistria to Ukraine.

In total border guards pulled from the ground about 500 meters of a 20 mm diameter hose  in the direction of the villages Nove (Ukraine) -  Nikolske (RM)

The competent law enforcement authorities were informed about this fact.

Currently, measures are being taken to identify those involved in the illegal activity.
