The naval forces of the security campaign monitored suspicious movements of a boat near the coast of Khor Al Amira, and it was found that there were a large number of people on board. Immediately, the forces chased the boat and stopped it, discovering that it was carrying illegal immigrants of different nationalities coming from the countries of the Horn of Africa.
Thanks to God, then high vigilance and tight coordination among the campaign members, the situation was dealt with completely professionally, as the migrants were transferred to designated centers to provide them with initial humanitarian aid, with the necessary legal measures being taken.
The security campaign leadership expressed its commitment to continuing its efforts to combat smuggling and illegal immigration operations, and stressed in its statement that these operations constitute a threat to national security and endanger the lives of migrants.
“Combating illegal immigration is not just a security responsibility, but a humanitarian and moral responsibility. We will continue to firmly confront this phenomenon, while ensuring respect for human rights and providing the necessary assistance to the migrants who are arrested.”
The security campaign called on citizens and residents to cooperate with the security services and report any suspicious activities related to smuggling or illegal immigration, stressing that community cooperation is the basis for maintaining the country’s security and stability.
The security authorities confirm that they will work to strengthen maritime oversight and tighten procedures at border points to prevent the recurrence of such illegal attempts, noting the importance of regional and international coordination to address the roots of this phenomenon.
In conclusion, the security campaign reminds us that the safety and stability of society is a shared responsibility between the security services and citizens, calling on everyone to be vigilant and cooperate in confronting everything that threatens the security of the homeland.
