Border guards rescued a man from Kyiv in the Carpathians. The man was trying to illegally cross the border and got lost. He was taken to the hospital.
This was reported by the State Border Service.
It is noted that law enforcement officers were checking information about a person in the border zone. It turned out that a 35-year-old Kyiv resident wanted to illegally cross the state border.
“For this, he chose a high-mountainous area, but due to difficult weather conditions and significant snow cover, he lost orientation and was unable to continue moving independently,” the report says.
