In Chernivtsi region, violator injures border guard while attempting to break through border

This was reported by the State Border Guard Service on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

“In the Chernivtsi region, a border patrol spotted a foreign-registered Range Rover SUV moving towards the Ukrainian-Romanian border. The driver ignored the soldiers' demand to stop and made a dangerous maneuver towards the border patrol,” the report said.

It is noted that the driver attempted to cross the line of engineering and barrier structures and illegally left for Romania. During the maneuver, the violator injured one of the border guards. As a result, the soldier suffered severe multiple injuries. The victim was hospitalized and underwent surgery, and his life is currently not in danger.

Later, border guards, together with National Police officers, found the vehicle abandoned on the outskirts of one of the settlements. During the search, law enforcement officers detained six violators who were in the car during the attempt to break through the border. The search for the driver continues.

As reported, in December of last year, a 33-year-old resident of the Lviv region attempted to move to Romania on a motorcycle illegally.
