Measures have been carried out on the Ukrainian-Moldovan border to counteract the establishment of smuggling channels
Divers of the special actions department of the Odessa Marine Guard detachment together with border guards of the Belgorod-Dnestrovsky and Podolsk border detachments conducted a survey of the Kuchurgan estuary.
Divers of the special actions department of the Odessa Marine Guard detachment and the district inspectors of the border service departments “Mayaki” and “Stepanivka” of the Belgorod-Dnestrovsky and Podolsk border detachments surveyed the Kuchurgan estuary.
During the week, a diver's calculation examined more than 7 thousand sq. m of the bottom of the border reservoir. There were no signs of setting up contraband shipments by submarine.
It is worth noting that this area attracts smugglers with its landscape features - thick reeds, impassable shores and frequent thick fogs.
However, for border guards it is by no means news that this is where offenders can begin their “active labor” activities. Therefore, in these areas of responsibility, border guards systematically carry out inspections in order to identify the arrangement of pipelines and other structures that can be used to move contraband and prohibited items. So every illegal act will be detected and stopped at the stage of arrangement.
