Serbian police and special forces launched a large-scale operation in the forest around Subotica on Tuesday morning. Several police units were deployed to sweep the area after the situation near the Serbia-Hungary border became untenable again in recent weeks.
Shootings have become a regular occurrence in Hajdukovo (Hajdujaras), Serbia, a predominantly Hungarian village just a few kilometers from the border fence. Illegal immigrants and people smugglers even entered the residential area and started shooting.
An elderly woman at the scene told Magyar Nemzet that migrants had fired shots just a few streets away from her house.
