Live contraband – cattle – was once again detained on the Ukrainian-Belarusian border. At dawn, a border patrol of the "Samary" outpost of the Lutsk detachment stopped two men who were driving three cows into Ukraine. The drovers, citizens of Belarus, were heading toward the Ukrainian village of Duby, where they would probably have left their charges. The Belarusians and the cows were taken to a border unit. They are currently awaiting a court decision. As employees of the Northern Regional Directorate of the State Border Guard Service note, such cases have become more frequent after the latest jump in prices for meat products in Ukraine. The path of the cattle, after their illegal crossing of the state border, would have led to the nearest market, but already in the form of meat or meat products. On the price difference in Ukraine and Belarus, the drover-smugglers can earn up to 100 dollars on each cow. Reported by the website of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine.
