/ world today news/ As a preventive measure against the wave of refugees, the Bulgarian army has already deployed manpower and military equipment at the border points with Macedonia. A military unit is located meters in front of the “Gyueshevo” KTPP and includes a “Hummer” jeep with a machine gun on top.
Soldiers armed with assault rifles patrol the border. 25 military personnel will be involved in the protection of our western border. Spikes have also been installed to stop cars.
Early this morning, a military unit of formation 26400-Blagoevgrad deployed meters before the Gueshevo border crossing on the Bulgarian-Macedonian border above Kyustendil. The commander of the unit, Lt. Col. Ivan Ivanov, is also present. The part is located meters before the border crossing, located 22 km west of Kyustendil.
There is also a military presence at the border posts – “St. Lisichkovo” near Blagoevgrad and “Zlatarevo” – Petrich. The presence of the army at the border posts is due to the wave of refugees that flooded Macedonia. Yesterday, the Minister of Defense Nikolay Nenchev said that he ordered 25 soldiers to be ready at the border points, in case of a possible wave of refugees headed for our country, reported in “Standart”.
