The Bulgarian Interior Ministry has reported that in the period March 9 – 16th, 46 migrants were detained while trying to enter Bulgaria from Turkey, which shows a minimal increase in migration pressure.
Last week there were 34 cases and before that – 21. The rise of migration pressure could be explained with warmer weather in recent days. As of March 16 there were about 4,200 refugees and migrants in this country.
