In collaboration with immigration management departments, the NIA has been able to initiate a special operation aimed at sternly cracking down on crimes associated with border management, creating a substantial deterrent against notable cross-border offenses.
The tactical endeavors, which spanned from June to October 2024, involved deploying 104,000 police and auxiliary officers, complemented by 85,000 community and social volunteers, aimed at conducting a comprehensive summer security crackdown and rectification operation.
These efforts have led to the apprehension of numerous individuals involved in ongoing criminal activities and neutralizing various dangerous security threats.
Further efforts by the NIA have been directed at tackling illegal employment, entry, and residency of foreigners in China.
