An Iraqi and 11 Syrians, who crossed the Bulgarian border illegally, have been detained on the land of the Svilengrad village of Generalovo (Southern Bulgaria), BNR correspondent from Haskovo Dora Atanasova reported. The migrants told the border police that they wanted to seek asylum in Bulgaria. The detainees, including three children, crossed the Maritsa River, led by a Greek smuggler, and a minibus with Bulgarian registration was waiting for them in Bulgarian territory. For their transfer to Bulgaria, each of them paid from 2,000 to 4,000 euros.
