On February 4, 2023, 4 foreigners suspected of illegally crossing the state border were arrested by the border service in Aktobe region, the National Security Committee of Kazakhstan reported. 

The detainees came to Kazakhstan from Uzbekistan legally in January 2023 and planned to move to Russia to work.
