The Public Security Police detained over 700 foreigners in the first year of operation of the National Unit for Foreigners and Borders. This data reveals the extent of PSP's activity in migration control during this period.
In addition to the detentions, PSP promoted 1,953 returns of foreigners to their country of origin, which demonstrates a significant effort in managing and regulating the migratory situation in Portugal.
The National Unit for Foreigners and Borders was created to centralize and reinforce the monitoring of issues related to immigration and border control in the country.
In the international context mentioned, the United States attacked Iranian military installations, an event that took place in parallel with these PSP operations in Portugal.
