Illegal immigrants in Germany drop by 1,00,000 in 2 years: Data
The number of migrants entering Germany illegally has dropped by over 1,00,000 in two years, according to police data. So far in 2025, 22,170 illegal entries have been recorded, down from 83,572 in 2024 and 1,27,549 in 2023. This decline is attributed to increased border checks by new interior minister, Alexander Dobrindt, who instructed police to turn back asylum seekers.
