The riot in the migrant camp in Harmanli was quelled during the night. Outgoing Prime Minister Boyko Borissov called for a strict observance of the law and warned that where there are clashes at refugee camps in Europe, there are usually terrorist sleeper cells.
The people who took part in the riot were mostly from Afghanistan. 300 people have been detained, 5 of them will be extradited, the rest will be transferred to camps of a closed type. Out of the 250 police officers who took part in quelling the riot, 24 have been wounded by flying stones. The camp has suffered severe damage.
