Hungary has detained 32 Ukrainian citizens who fled across the border in a truck, the Ukrainian border guard agency said on June 10. Hungary “reported that they had discovered a vehicle and detained 32 Ukrainian citizens,” Ukrainian border guard spokesman Andriy Demchenko told news site Ukrayinska Pravda. Demchenko said the truck is not believed to be from the Ukrainian military despite its green paint and black license plate. Martial law was imposed in Ukraine following the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion, and men of conscription age are barred from leaving the country, although many attempt to flee into neighboring EU states and Moldova.
