Travelers told the locals how they sailed from the village in Chukotka and overcame about 500 kilometers. The coastal security sent a C-130 cargo aircraft to take them out. The US Coast Guard detained two men on St. Laudenti Alaska Island. They sailed from Russia by a boat and said they were escaping from the military, writes a local edition of Alaska's News Source. Men arrived in the American village of Gembell on Tuesday, October 4.

Residents of the village told the border guards about the boat with two foreigners - citizens of the Russian Federation. Travelers in communication with the locals claimed that they sailed from the village of Egwecinot on Chukotka and "fled from the Russian military" about 500 kilometers by the sea. The Russians were reported to the US Department of Internal Security and Alaska Senator Dan Sullivan.

The senator's office noted that the border guards find out the possibility of entering men into the states. Clerk Curtis Siluk said that men were taken from the island on the day of their arrival. Alaska Governor Mike Danvili told that they are now in Anchorge. The Russians are engaged in federal power. The US Coast Guard sent a C-130 cargo aircraft with the staff of the customs and border service to take the Russians to export the Russians, supplements Anchorage Daily News.

"Given the current increased tension in US and Russia relations, Sullivan called the Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Security and spoke with him, as well as with another high -ranking ministry official," said Public Relations Director Mike Reinard. The village of Gembell is less than 40 miles from the mainland of Russia. Recall that at the end of September, Chinese and Russian warships were seen in the Bering Sea near the shores of Alaska.
