Over 6,000 people crossed the Stanytsia Luhanska checkpoint in 24 hours
On July 22nd, 6,111 people crossed the line of demarcation through the Stanytsia Luhanska checkpoint in both directions. As Deputy Chairman of the Luhansk Regional Military-Civil Administration, Yury Klimenko, told journalists, it is the largest number of people crossing the checkpoint in a 24-hour period since the opening of the checkpoint.
"Despite the increased attacks by militants, people continue to cross the only pedestrian checkpoint in the Luhansk region," the press service of Luhansk State Administration stated, citing Klimenko.
"We have always supported and will always support the increase in the number of checkpoints. As you know, this question has not once been presented for discussion in Minsk by the Ukrainian side. However, it has always been met with a destructive opposition from the so-called LPR,” the Deputy Chairman of the Luhansk Regional Military-Civil Administration said.
