The movement of four people was noticed by the border guard inspector while performing his duties in the border sector.

In several minutes a response group from Troitske Border Guard Division detained two women, a man and a child on the outskirts of Troitske, Luhansk Oblast. The detainees of Asian appearance did not have any documents with them.

In the conversation with the border guards, the oldest woman notified that they were the citizens of the Republic of Afghanistan and were going to Odessa together with her son, daughter and granddaughter, where her husband lived. They did not have necessary documents to cross the Ukrainian border, so they chose an illegal "way" to bypass the border crossing point.

Currently, citizens have been taken to the border guard unit to find out the circumstances of illegal border crossing. They face administrative liability. Measures are being taken to identify the detainees.
