According to the government’s decision, additional rules governing presence and movement are being established within the one-kilometer strip along the border. In particular, the restrictions concern entry, presence, and the performance of work unrelated to ensuring the defense and protection of the state border.
The special regime applies to sections of Ukraine’s state border with Russia and Belarus. Its introduction is linked to the need to strengthen control over the border area and ensure security amid the full-scale war.
The State Border Guard Service emphasized that the established regime is intended to regulate access to territories directly adjacent to the state border. At the same time, the restrictions do not apply to activities necessary for Ukraine’s defense, the protection of the state border, or the performance of relevant official duties.
