Almost 43,000 people crossed the state border from Ukraine to the EU and Moldova on March 23, while the day before there were more than 43,000, the State Border Guard Service said on Thursday. “The data of the last few days indicate that the passenger flow on the western section of the border remains stable,” the agency reported.
The State Border Guard Service said that about two-thirds of those who left went to Poland, which corresponds to the average values.
According to it, the flow of people entering Ukraine on March 24 remained the same as the day before – more than 19,000, including almost 16,000 citizens of Ukraine. “The vast majority are men who are ready to defend the country. Since the beginning of the open armed aggression, more than 400,000 of our compatriots returned to Ukraine,” the State Border Guard Service said.
It reports that all checkpoints on the western border (except “Dzvinkove”) operate around the clock.
The State Border Guard Service also reported that over the past day the number of registered vehicles with humanitarian cargo exceeded 670, while in previous two days they were registered 750-760.
