"All frontier stations are now full, and on Saturday and Sunday, we had to resolve the issue of where to accommodate those people. We see that there's no possibility to move illegal migrants out of the SBGS units, we managed to resolve the issue for now but we are close to the limit of our possibilities," he told the national radio LRT on Monday.
He also informed that another 109 illegal migrants crossed into Lithuania from Belarus from past midnight to Monday morning, adding that a record-high was reported on Sunday when 289 illegal migrants were detained.
"Sunday was a really busy day for border guards as 289 illegal migrants were detained, which is the highest number since the start of this year, or the start of the so-called migration crisis," Liubajeva said.
As of last week, around 2,000 illegal migrants had lived at frontier stations. Some 380 of them were moved to the Rudninkai military training area last Thursday, with plans to move up to 800 illegal migrants there.
Lithuania has so far detained over 3,000 illegal migrants this year after they cross into the country from Belarus, which is more than 40 more than over the whole year of 2020.
Border guards say most of the migrants want to get to Western European countries via Lithuania.
A state-level extreme situation is declared in Lithuania over the unprecedented influx of irregular migrants which Lithuanian officials say is being orchestrated by the Belarusian regime.
