June 7 Border Queues: Heavy Traffic at Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary Crossings.

Border Crossing Update: Ukraine’s Frontiers with Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary

According to Novyny.live: On June 7, long lines were reported at Ukraine’s borders with Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary. The longest queues were observed at the Polish border, while crossings into Romania and Moldova remained free of traffic.

At the 'Yahodyn' checkpoint, two buses were recorded, but pedestrian passage is not allowed. The 'Ustyluh' checkpoint saw a line of 80 cars, with no buses and no pedestrian access. At 'Uhryniv,' there were 65 cars and one bus, with similar restrictions on foot traffic.

Checkpoint-by-Checkpoint Details

Notably, the 'Rava-Ruska' checkpoint had no queues—no cars or buses were present, and pedestrian crossing is not permitted. At 'Hrushiv,' 40 cars were lined up, with no buses and no pedestrian access. 'Krakovets' reported 20 cars and three buses, but again, no pedestrians were allowed through.

The 'Shehyni' checkpoint saw a different situation: a queue of 10 cars and six buses, with pedestrian crossing operating in both directions. Other checkpoints—including 'Malyi Bereznyi,' 'Uzhhorod,' 'Mali Selmentsi,' 'Tysa,' 'Dzvinkove,' 'Kosyno,' 'Luzhanka,' 'Diakove,' 'Solotvyno,' 'Porubne,' 'Krasnoilsk,' and 'Diakivtsi'—recorded no cars or buses and either do not allow pedestrian passage or operate on a very limited basis.

As of June 7, the situation at Ukraine’s borders remains challenging, especially on routes to Poland, while other crossings remain open for vehicle traffic. This congestion reflects increased pressure on border points, particularly toward Poland, potentially driven by seasonal factors like rising tourist flows or economic activity.

The current border situation indicates growing strain on checkpoints, especially toward Poland, which may be linked to seasonal factors such as increased tourist traffic or economic reasons.

Given pedestrian restrictions and varying rules for cargo transport, drivers should anticipate delays and plan their trips well in advance.
