As of this morning, there are about 270 empty trucks in the queue. This was reported by the spokesman of the State Border Guard Service Andriy Demchenko on Friday, according to a correspondent of UNN.

About 100 trucks crossed the border over the past day. The capacity of the border crossing per day is about 100 or a little more vehicles, and such traffic is happening,

said Demchenko.

According to him, as of this morning, there are about 270 trucks in the queues that want to cross the border empty to leave Ukraine.

In addition, Demchenko noted that so far there has been no movement of protesters to unblock the border.

Addendum

Ukraine and Poland agree to unblock the Uhryniv-Dolhobyczów checkpoint for empty trucks and to create separate passes for empty vehicles at the Yahodyn-Dorohusk and Krakivets-Korchova checkpoints in the eChechora system.

The protest of Polish carriers began on November 6, initially at three checkpoints. Later, the protest was expanded to a fourth checkpoint.
