BELGRADE – A camp for illegal migrants in Velika Kladusa, in the far northwest of Bosnia-Herzegovina, close to the border with Croatia, has now been emptied and all the people present, about 300, have been transferred to the new reception center in Lipa, set up in recent months in this locality near Bihac, just south of Velika Kladusa. In reporting this, the regional media reported that the operation was carried out with the intervention of the local police and that there were no incidents.
The camp in question was built in 2018, in the face of the continuous arrival of migrants traveling along the so-called Balkan route and intending to pass through Croatian territory to continue towards Western Europe. The reception center of Lipa, built with the financial contribution of the international community, can accommodate up to 1,500 migrants, with conditions of stay even in winter weather.
Local police estimate that there are less than 3,000 illegal migrants currently present in northwestern Bosnia-Herzegovina.
