A border guard response team immediately went to the indicated location and detained all the people.
“Later, two citizens reported that they were employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the unrecognized Transnistria, one of them had the corresponding identification. The man, whom they tried to drag into the neighboring territory illegally, bypassing the checkpoint, turned out to be a Ukrainian, a resident of Odessa,” the border department noted.
