The smugglers' criminal plans were thwarted by a complex video surveillance and alarm system, which is one of the components of the engineering and technical arrangement of the state border.

With the help of optoelectronic devices, border guards detected the movement of three vehicles towards the border with Russia. A border patrol immediately went in the direction of a possible illegal border crossing.

Later, along the state border, near the village of Krasne, in the Kharkiv district, law enforcement officers stopped an attempt to illegally move seven bales of women's clothing across the border. The smugglers prepared the goods for moving from Ukraine to Russia.

At present,  the goods have been transferred to the competent law enforcement agencies. Measures to establish the owner are underway.

It should be noted that last week, using a  complex video surveillance and alarm system, border guards of the Kharkiv border guard detachment detained a Russian https://cutt.ly/Yjct8Nz who was trying to enter Ukraine illegally.
