Recall that in Transcarpathia, since March 7 this year, the number of border checkpoints within settlements has increased. First of all, we are talking about the newly formed border guard post in the city of Perechyn. We wrote about this in a previous publication. According to the head of the community, Ivan Pohoriliak, the military is on duty at the checkpoint the day before .
It should be noted that certain discussions about the establishment of a border post in Perechyn have flared up on Facebook. In the comments, people expressed negative emotions about the fact that the city is tightening control over the territory. For many, such actions seemed absurd, especially since previously deployed checkpoints were already operating at the entrance to Perechyn and in the direction of the village of Dubrynych .
