"If you want to hide something, put it in a visible place" - this seems to be the proverbial saying that guided the 40-year-old resident of Izmail when he started swimming from the very embankment of the city's seaport. He did not put his documents in danger, swimming only with a copy of his ID card, which he wrapped in plastic. No matter how much the man hoped to remain invisible, it did not happen

- said the State Border Guard Service.

He was brought to administrative responsibility for attempting to illegally cross the state border and violating the border regime.
