The Algarve will have an increase of 206 GNR soldiers between June 15 and September 15 to strengthen security over the tourist season.
"The increase is sufficient, we believe, but we will be vigilant and monitor everything that happens and can provide more teams to reinforce the plan," according to the words of the Minister of Internal Affairs, Miguel Macedo, divulged after a presentation to dignitaries in Faro to which the press were invited and then banned.
