Joint operation area: of the seven open checkpoints, a full pass is carried out only in “Stanytsya Luhanska”
By decision of the Joint Forces Operation Commander, all checkpoints are open for passage through the demarcation line. Checkpoints operate daily from 08:00 to 16:00. However, the free movement of citizens is hindered by the occupiers, who have blocked traffic in most of the road corridors.
Opposite the checkpoint “Novotroitske”, the occupiers pass only certain citizens twice a week — on Monday and Friday. During these days, 609 people and 103 vehicles crossed the demarcation line at the checkpoint to the temporarily occupied part of Donetsk region, at the same time, 471 people and 117 vehicles passed through the territory controlled by the Ukrainian authorities.
Of the 7 open checkpoints, a full pass is carried out only in “Stanytsya Luhanska”. Compared to the previous period, the passenger traffic intensity increased by 23%. In just one week, 9,641 people passed through this road corridor into the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine, and 9,777 people entered the controlled territory.
During the control measures, the border guards detected 5 citizens who were heading to the controlled territory on partially forged documents. Notices are sent to the National Police on the detection of signs of criminal offenses.
32 trucks with humanitarian cargo from the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Embassy of Switzerland passed through the checkpoints “Novotroitske” and “Schastya”. For the population of the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine, water treatment facilities and medical equipment. The total weight of humanitarian aid was 342.9 tons.
We remind you that citizens who are subject to self-isolation while following the controlled territory are obliged to install and activate the mobile application of the system “At Home”. If it is not possible to install a mobile application, they are subject to observation. And foreigners, when crossing the demarcation line, in addition, must have an insurance policy.
At the same time, there is a wide list of categories of citizens to whom self-isolation does not apply. We advise citizens to familiarize themselves with the full list of categories of persons who are not subject to self-isolation. Self-isolation will stop if a negative COVID-19 test result is obtained by PCR or express test, which is carried out after crossing the checkpoint.
Also a prerequisite is the passage of temperature screening and staying in the checkpoint in a protective mask (respirator) with observance of social distance.
