Asylum-Seekers Center in Albania Almost Empty as Many Left Illegally

A few weeks ago, there were hundreds of emigrants in the asylum seekers' center in Tirana, while these days there are only 15 left.

They have managed to leave the center illegally and head to European Union countries.

According to a document provided by local media a new trafficking line has been created from Albania to EU countries, through Mitrovica.

The new smuggling route is Tirana-Morina-Pristina-Mitrovica, which is organized by Albanians and Syrians.

Just a few days ago in Kosovo a truck with 24 emigrants was caught. Two Albanian traffickers were handcuffed.
