Another body of a man was found in the Tisza River, which flows on the borders of Zakarpattia Oblast with Romania and Hungary.

This is reported by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.

The agency called the deceased a "drowning man" who tried to swim across the river. The body was found 10 meters from the Romanian coast. Romanian colleagues informed the Ukrainian border guards about him.

Since the beginning of May of this year, this is already the eighth drowned person, the Ministry of Internal Affairs noted.

  • Since the beginning of the full-scale war, according to official data, 30 men have already died in Tisza. All of them probably tried to escape from mobilization in neighboring countries. At the beginning of May, the water level in the Tisza River dropped, so the border guards began to find even more bodies. The exact number of people killed in the river is unknown, but it is believed to be higher than official figures.
