Protesting Polish farmers continue to stop truck traffic at the Dorohusk-Yahodyn, Hrebenne-Rava-Ruska, Medyka-Shehyni, Zosyn-Ustyluh, Dolhobychuv-Uhryniv and Korczova-Krakowiec checkpoints. This was reported to Ukrinform by the spokesman for the State Border Service, Andriy Demchenko.
According to him, the participants of the blockade on the territory of Poland allow only a few trucks per hour in both directions.
"On 18 February, no trucks were allowed to cross at all at the Yahodyn checkpoint. Cars and buses were cleared as usual. As of this morning of 19 February, about 2,900 trucks are waiting to cross the border into Ukraine at these six checkpoints in Poland, most of them at the Yahodyn and Krakowiec checkpoints," the spokesman said.
He noted that there has been a "significant decrease" in the number of trucks crossing the border per day, especially in the direction of the Yahodyn and Shehyni checkpoints.
