The Bulgarian refugee centers have filled their maximum capacity, the State Agency for Refugees announced. A total of 5,569 foreign nationals were accommodated at the migrant centers. The State Agency for Refugees took measures aimed at providing additional accommodation to the refugees. A refugee camp consisting of 400 caravans will be also used if necessary, the agency informs. The State Agency for Refugees is planning to build a second camp of that type. Over 10,000 migrants left voluntarily the Bulgarian refugee centers since the beginning of 2016.
