The Service for Foreigners Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina has undertaken operational activities aimed at controlling the movement and stay of migrants in the Cazin area at two locations, Šturlić and Hadžin Potok, where migrants stayed in makeshift accommodation.

Inspectors of the Service for Foreigners Affairs found 160 migrants at the mentioned locations, among whom were 19 families with 29 minors.

Most of them are citizens of Afghanistan and Iran, and they were relocated, accommodated and taken care of in the temporary reception center Lipa.

Currently, medical examination, identification and registration activities are being carried out, as well as accommodation in the isolation part of the temporary reception center Borići and Lipa due to Covid protective measures.

During the implementation of these activities, five unaccompanied minors were found, of which the Center for Social Work was immediately notified in order to initiate procedures for determining guardianship and their further accommodation and care.
