Truckers from Poland and Slovakia have been blocking border crossings with Ukraine, causing disruptions to the transportation of military aid and commercial goods. The blockade, a protest against special privileges for Ukrainian truckers, has led to the use of trains to move blocked lorries across the Polish border. The situation has resulted in thousands of trucks being stuck at checkpoints, with some temporary reprieves and subsequent blockades. The protests have also involved Hungarian hauliers. However, an agreement was reached to unblock parts of the Ukrainian-Polish border, with the Dorohusk checkpoint being unblocked and trucks beginning to pass through. The ongoing blockades have affected the movement of goods and military aid, impacting Ukraine's armed forces and causing disruptions on the battlefield.
