According to the British "Guardian" 24**, a hiking group composed mainly of Syrians was stopped while crossing the German forest a few days ago because witnesses reported and suspected that they were illegal immigrants.
According to the report, the group has about 55 people, most of whom are Syrians living in Germany, and most of them communicate in Arabic. They planned to spend four days exploring the forests of eastern Germany, but as they passed through a village and were about to return to their hotel, a police car blocked their way. Later, they learned that some locals thought they were illegal immigrants who were planning to smuggle into the Czech Republic, so they called the police. Fortunately, the police did not embarrass them after learning what happened.
In this regard, the organizer of the walking group, Aham Tahan, said that the walking group was just doing activities that are common to ordinary Germans, and he did not expect that anyone would call the police. Some members felt offended and denounced it as racist. According to reports, in response to people's dissatisfaction with the economy, immigration and the rising cost of living, Germany** is recently stepping up its efforts to crack down on illegal immigrants and stepping up temporary inspections at the border with the Czech Republic and Poland.
