Thousands of panicking Ukrainians are trying to break through the Polish-Ukrainian border
Huge queues are forming at existing checkpoints on the Polish-Ukrainian border, the number of which has been significantly reduced as a result of measures introduced by Kiev to combat the coronavirus pandemic.
Deputy of the Lviv City Council Igor Zinkevich reported this on his Facebook page, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“This is the situation on the borders of Ukraine from yesterday evening to today. A lot of people stand to get to Ukraine,” the parliamentarian commented.
Published photos and videos show that most of those trying to get into Ukraine do not even have protective masks, despite the fact that people fleeing the danger zone have to stand in close proximity to each other for many hours.
Let us remind you that today is the last day when Ukraine allows its citizens back during quarantine. After 00:00 the country closes its borders.
