Security sources told the daily the deadline given to violators to leave the country or modify their situations in 2018 resulted in reducing the number to 107,000 after about 58,000 modified or left the country, according to the Interior Ministry figures.

The sources added in just one year and four months since the expiry of the deadline to leave the country or rectify the situation, the number of violators has increased again to 115,000 as per the residence affairs records.
