Long lines of lorries still stretching on the Lithuanian-Belarusian border – Abroad – News

The places for drivers have to spend more than three days, the Lithuanian State Border Guard Service (VSAT) has announced.

According to VSAT representative Ģiedrjus Mišutis told the BNS news agency, this situation is largely explained by the fact that there is still no checkpoint at the Polish border with Belarus, where illegal migrants tried to cross the border by force in November.

“The Kuznetz-Bruzgu point, where the riots took place, is still closed. , “He explained.

According to the border guard, the weather could also have some effect, but the queues at the Medininkai checkpoint have also increased because Lithuanian border guards have tightened their control of trucks after finding four illegal Iraqi migrants hiding in a peat truck a week ago.

According to the SBGS, 740 trucks are waiting to enter Lithuania on the Belarusian side in Medininkai, 170 on the Lithuanian side, 730 and 118 in Šalčininkai, 500 and 25 in Raigard, and 350 and 10 in Lavoriškės.
