Details: The Polish hauliers’ protest in front of the Dorohusk-Yahodyn checkpoint came to an end on 16 January, as the Border Guard of the Republic of Poland notified their Ukrainian counterparts at 20:00 (Kyiv time).
Cargo vehicles are registered and allowed to cross the border in both directions as usual.
As a result, Poland’s partial blockade of the Ukrainian border has been lifted.
