The all-Ukrainian association Svoboda (Freedom) has published a bulletin saying that its activists blocked about 30 Russian trucks from moving through Ukrainian territory on Tuesday.

In particular, Svoboda activists stopped six Russian trucks near Baturyn, the Sumy region, and two trucks not far from the Domanove checkpoint in Volyn region.

One truck with Russian license plates managed to pass through the Baturyn checkpoint "under escort of police vehicles with flashing beacons on," the bulletin says.

One Russian truck was stopped at the entrance to Stryi, the Lviv region, and another "broke through a checkpoint at a high speed and under police escort," it said.

Activists also managed to stop 12 trucks with Russian license plates in the village of Hamaliyivka not far from Lviv.

Young Svoboda activists also stopped 11 Russian trucks and made them turn around near the Porubne checkpoint in the Chernivtsi region, the bulletin says.
