First empty lorries pass through new Ukraine crossing at Polish border December 03, 2023 at 11:06PM

The Uhryniv-Dolhobychuv crossing on the Ukrainian-Polish border opened, allowing the first 30 empty lorries to pass through. The opening of the crossing aims to unblock main land corridors amid ongoing protests by Polish drivers. The protests started on November 6 and have resulted in the blockade of four border crossings. Ukraine and Poland have agreed on some measures to ease the pressure at the blockaded border crossings, but the main demands of the protests have not been discussed.
