The government has made changes to the rules of border regime and regime restrictions in the areas adjacent to the administrative border and the demarcation line from TOTU

Among other things, they will determine the rules of entry, stay, residence and movement of persons, conduct of works, holding meetings, rallies, manifestations and demonstrations, sports, entertainment and other mass events, etc.
