Hungarian authorities discover multiple tunnels below border fence
Hungarian authorities discovered three separate tunnels below the fence on Hungary’s southern borders over the span of just several hours, the police said on its website on Wednesday.
The tunnels which appear to have been dug from the Serbian side were discovered in the border towns of Katymar, Csikeria and Kelebia, local police said in a statement.
Illegal entry attempts are on the rise along the Bács-Kiskun County stretch of the southern border,
police said, adding that patrols are set to be stepped up along those sections.
A few days ago the police detained a Turkish driver with 22 illegal migrants in his car on the M3 motorway, details HERE.

PROBLEM – illegal migrants (with assistance from Serbian-Hungarian criminal gangs / smugglers) are entering into Hungary via tunnels dug under border fence from the Serbian side.
SOLUTION – build a THIRD BARRIER FENCE (located about 30 metres behind the one already WITHIN Hungarian territory) and install LAND MINES at strategic intervals within the HUNGARIAN area occupied between fences 2 and 3.
Notices warning of the land-mines must be placed in visible areas and the public informed via media.
The illegal migrants – who are obviously very well informed – will cease trying to enter Hungary by tunnels because the risk of blowing themselves up is too high.
