HATAY, Turkey (AA) - At least 55 undocumented migrants were held in southern Turkey, a security official said Wednesday.
The migrants, all Syrians, were held in Hatay province -- which lies on the border with Syria -- as they were attempting to illegally cross into Turkey, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to restrictions on talking to the media.
Turkey has been the main route for refugees trying to cross into Europe since the beginning of the civil war in Syria.
