In the Chernivtsi region, men aged 18 to 60 have been prohibited from approaching the border

This concerns the border between Ukraine and Moldova and Romania. Such an order was issued by the head of the Chernivtsi Border Guard Unit, as reported by the Romanian portal Digi24.

The measure was taken in response to an increase in cases of illegal border crossings by citizens to avoid conscription into the army. An exception is made for citizens who permanently or temporarily reside in the border zone or own land plots. In both cases, permission issued by the border guard unit is required.

It is worth noting that Ukrainian authorities have intensified the mobilization of men. However, people are reluctant to go to war, so the number of attempts to cross the border has increased significantly. Every day, dozens of men attempt to cross the border illegally, but many of them are caught by border guards.
