For 90 days, joint police-army operations will be in place for the anti-clandestine operation. The police have divided Vlora into six zones, each of which includes 3-4 km of coastline. Under this arrangement, at least two armed police officers have been stationed every 100 meters. Because of the hilly terrain, police dogs are also taking part in the actions. “The clandestines are now finding themselves in front of two armies blocking them,” one of the operation’s leaders in Vlora told “Gazeta Shqiptare” yesterday. Last evening, there was no movement in the known departure points of the speedboats.

The Italian fleet is continuing to carry out its part of the agreement with rigor,” a police officer said.

Public Order Minister Agron Musaraj and Prime Minister Aleksandër Meksi have stated that Italy will be asked to review its visa policy for Albanians. PS: Meksi remains...
