17.08.2024 - 15:53Two men attacked Ukrainian border guards and made their way into Romania, where they sought political asylum.
This was reported by PresaSM, citing the Romanian Border Police.
The incident occurred around 1:30 PM. At that time, a group of men who had earlier attacked a Ukrainian border patrol crossed into the country. Later, Ukrainian border guards confirmed to their Romanian counterparts that a group of people had illegally crossed the border.
The escapees were armed with combat weapons and grenades, which they may have taken from the Ukrainian border guards.
The police in the city of Satu Mare deployed search patrols and a helicopter to locate the Ukrainians. Several search teams headed to the areas around the villages of Tarna Mare and Halmeu, and streets near the border were cordoned off by law enforcement.
Eventually, both men were apprehended.

One of them showed law enforcement officers the location near the border where he had left the weapons. The offenders requested political asylum from the Romanian authorities.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian State Border Guard Service (SBGS) confirmed that today several individuals attacked one of the military personnel of a border patrol in Zakarpattia. According to the SBGS, there were three escapees.
“Three offenders were stopped while attempting to illegally cross the border into Romania. After attacking the serviceman, the men seized his weapon and fled toward the neighboring country,” said SBGS spokesperson Andriy Demchenko.
He added that additional groups were sent to the scene to search for the offenders and check the rear approaches to the border. The border guards also informed their Romanian counterparts and law enforcement agencies.
“One of the offenders was soon apprehended by Ukrainian border guards nearby as he tried to overcome engineering barriers to cross the border further. He turned out to be a resident of Zakarpattia,” Demchenko added.
The Romanian side detained the other two escapees. Shortly afterward, Romanian border guards discovered the weapons that had been taken by the attackers.
“They discarded it on Romanian territory, and one of the detainees pointed out the location. Ukrainian border guards also found ammunition that the attackers had discarded near the scene of the attack on the serviceman during their escape,” said the SBGS representative.
Law enforcement is currently continuing to investigate the circumstances of the incident.
