The drowned men were found last night in Zakarpattia while patrolling the Ukrainian-Romanian border. Rescuers from the State Emergency Service and the National Police were called to the scene. Due to high rapids and strong currents, they managed to get the bodies out of the water only in the morning. The victims are currently being identified.
