4 months of bloody fighting with superior enemy forces
Aggressive blockade of the polish border
- Polish protesters have started to block movement at the border with Ukraine more aggressively.
- They continue to block traffic in six directions, and in three of them, they block traffic not only for lorries but also for cars and buses.
- Poles spilled Ukrainian grain on the border.
- Operators are forced to seek alternative supply routes for products, which increases the cost of each trip by 600-1000 euros.
- The blockade of the border by Polish protesters will inevitably lead to an increase in prices in Ukraine.
