Trucks are undergoing enhanced inspection for smuggling at the Ukrainian-Polish border, as a result of which vehicle queues have formed. The situation at the border is further complicated by the absence of leadership at the customs administration. \n \nAt certain border crossing points, queues of fifty trucks have formed. This was reported by the Halytska Customs. The queues are attributed to thorough inspection of trucks and to delays in processing documents by the Polish side. \n \nIn addition, Kyiv and Halych customs officers are working jointly at the border, though the purpose of the cooperation is not disclosed. Tension is felt not only at the border but also in the city. Meat products have become more expensive at Lviv markets. Vendors explain this by restricted imports of meat from Poland, which often entered the region illegally. \n \n
Traffic at the border with Poland paralyzed due to anti-smuggling efforts
