BIHAĆ, October 16 (FENA) - The Police in the Una-Sana Canton (USC) yesterday relocated some 1,500 migrants and refugees to a temporary reception center in Vučjak. Persons who did not have legal accommodation, or who resided in public areas and abandoned buildings in the center of Bihać have been dislocated as well.
This police campaign us one of the measures of the cantonal Task Force on the coordination of migration crisis activities and monitoring over the migrant crisis and is being implemented to protect the security and health situation in this part of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
"During yesterday's operation, about 1,500 people were relocated to Vučjak, who did not have adequate accommodation, so about 2,300 migrants are now residing in that temporary reception center.
The activities will continue, as these are the conclusions and proposed measures of the Task Force and we will assist the cantonal inspections when checking illegal accommodation," said Ale Šiljdedić, spokesman of the Una-Sana Canton Ministry of Interior.
The Red Cross of the City of Bihać has warned that they cannot guarantee that all the needs of so many people can be serviced in the temporary center in Vučjak.
"For the first time, we cannot guarantee adequate treatment because since April we have been taking care of all the needs of the people at Vučjak. This morning we found a large number of people in the camp, and all the tents are full. We have to start with a new way of distributing the food supplies but we fear that we will not be able to maintain the Vučjak camp in an appropriate manner. I am afraid that there is a period of uncertainty ahead of us," said Selam Midžić from the Red Cross of the City of Bihać.
