This morning began a new massive operation by the Ministry of Internal Affairs against the trafficking operators in Bulgaria. After last week the uniformed hit the so-called havalari, today the actions are directed against the traffickers themselves.

The aim is to stop the criminal activity of groups of persons who are known to be actively involved in the organization of illegal trafficking.
