Municipal service Kočevje announced that this week 70 bags or 640 kg of waste left behind by illegal migrants were collected at five different locations in the Kočevje forests.
The photos show that migrants had set up tents in the area, and discarded sleeping bags, backpacks, leftover food, drinks, clothes, etc.
One of the followers thanked the municipal service and wrote: “Thank you for cleaning up. That’s all I can say. It’s awful when we pick mushrooms and walk dogs – all this clutter. And you still see some who are browsing through this waste because you can still find some useful and good things, e.g. sleeping bags. It is sad.”
