Four supporters of an international terrorist organization were detained in Donetsk

Employees of the FSB and the Interior Ministry detained four supporters of an international terrorist organization in Donetsk. This was reported on November 26 by Arina Klepanova, the official representative of the Russian Federal Security Service of the Donetsk People's Republic (DNR).

It is specified that four foreign citizens, violating migration laws, arrived on the territory of the DNR to propagandize radical Islamism among the local population.

"The illegal activity of propagandists was suppressed by operatives of the FSS of Russia on DNR," - informed Klepanova.

Voroshilovsky inter-district court brought foreign citizens to administrative responsibility under part 1.1 of article 18.8 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation "Violation by a foreign citizen or stateless person of the rules of entry into the Russian Federation or the regime of stay (residence) in the Russian Federation". After that, the defendants of the case were forcibly deported from the country.

Earlier, on October 17, the Main Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation reported that more than 2 thousand illegal migrants would be expelled from the country. In Moscow during the week law enforcement agencies conducted the second stage of the operation "Illegal-2024" to identify and suppress channels of illegal migration. In total, police officers have revealed more than 13 thousand violations. Among other things, 420 criminal cases were initiated for organization of illegal migration.

October 16, the State Duma in the first reading adopted a bill, according to which the organizers of illegal migration will be criminally liable for up to 15 years. The adopted amendment is an addition to Article 322.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Organization of illegal migration").
