Just a reminder. Crossing the border is a rather lengthy process. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, the load on the checkpoints has increased significantly. According to the Government's Strategy, the issue should be resolved by reconstructing existing checkpoints and building new ones. More information about the draft Border Infrastructure Development Strategy is available here.
