Border crossings with Moldova in the Odesa region were closed following the Russian attack
As a result of Russian strikes, a section of the “Odesa–Reni” highway has been temporarily closed. This has made travel to and from certain border crossing points on the border with Moldova in the direction of Odesa difficult or impossible.
The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine urges citizens to take these restrictions into account when planning their trips and promises to provide further updates once normal traffic resumes.
