From October 1 to October 10, a comprehensive operational-preventive operation titled "Illegal Migrant" was carried out in the Arkhangelsk region. Territorial Interior Ministry officers inspected construction sites, trade facilities, agricultural and forestry sectors, as well as transport infrastructure.
During the operation, 109 cases of migration law violations were identified. Administrative expulsion decisions were issued against 15 foreign nationals residing illegally in Russia. Six of them were placed in the temporary detention center for foreign citizens in Arkhangelsk.
Furthermore, it was determined that 11 foreigners were engaged in illegal labor activities, and 15 employers committed violations while hiring foreign workers. Additionally, 6 cases of fictitious migration registration were uncovered. Specifically, in the city of Velsk, a criminal case was initiated against an individual entrepreneur for registering two foreign workers at an address where they did not actually reside.
As a result of the control measures, 66 foreigners were banned from entering Russia. Also, 3 temporary residence permits (RVP), 25 residence permits (VNJ), and 2 work patents were revoked. The temporary stay period in Russia was shortened for 5 foreign citizens residing in Arkhangelsk and Severodvinsk.
