Polish protesters have eased traffic restrictions near the border with Ukraine, the State Border Service has said.

After 17:00, the movement of cars and buses through the Hrebenne-Rava-Ruska checkpoint resumed. The protesters also expressed their readiness to allow one truck to pass every hour in both directions. 

Border guards said that the protesters were ready to let a small amount of traffic through the Zosyn-Ustyluh checkpoint.

"In particular, they plan to let five cars in both directions every 30 minutes, one truck every hour to enter Poland and three trucks to enter Ukraine. Buses in both directions will be allowed to pass as usual," the State Border Service added.
