The State Agency for Refugees will not build any new refugee centers, announced on BTV the Chairwoman of the Agency Petia Parvanova.


''We have extended capacity for 6,000 people in the centers in the country and 5,100 are currently occupied. This means there is room for another 900 people'' she added.

''The damages after the riot on Thursday night will be repaired within a few days,'' added Parvanova.

The migrants arrested during yesterday's riot are in the detention centers of the Ministry of Interior. There is increased police presence at the camp in Harmanli, informed Petia Parvanova.

According to her, this is a necessary and useful measure in order to avoid further tension among the migrants.
