Several times a week there are flights in and out of Birmingham Airport by
elderly Antonov An-12 cargo aircraft - all over 50 years old, and looking
like a Russian version of a Hercules. Not always the same individual
aircraft - they belong to various carriers and are usually registered in
Belarus or Ukraine. According to FlightRadar, they are mainly plying
between Birmingham and various destinations in Slovakia.

Anyone got any idea what they might be carrying?

Romanians.
