How Bulgaria Pushed 84 Migrants To Turkey Half-Naked

Bulgarian border units pushed back 84 irregular migrants to Turkey half-naked.

The Gendarmerie squads in Turkey's northwestern Kırklareli province noticed that there were semi-naked irregular migrants in the forest area during their patrol in the Kofçaz district near the Bulgarian border on Sunday.

And the migrants, who were Afghan, Moroccan, Syrian and Iranian nationals, were trying to protect themselves from the cold weather by wearing sacks and bags.

In their statements, the migrants said they crossed to Bulgaria via Greece. Later, they were caught by Bulgarian police and left to the Turkish side half-naked after their belongings were taken away.

In a separate incident, a group of 103 irregular migrants, including Afghan, Moroccan, Syrian, Tunisian and Iranian nationals, were also held by Turkish security forces.

And they were later referred to a provincial repatriation center.
