In total, 1,515 people have come to Belarus from Ukraine since February 24th: 842 citizens of Belarus, 450 – of Ukraine, and 223 – of other states.

As reported by the State Border Committee of Belarus, the country’s checkpoints are operating normally. The suspension of functioning of the Ukrainian border crossing points has a negative impact on the ability of citizens staying in Ukraine to travel to Belarus.

"As for the safe departure from Ukraine and choice of a transit route to Belarus, we recommend contacting Belarus’ Foreign Ministry hotline: +380504062330, +375173794771, +375173792673, +375172792872. Belarus’ Foreign Ministry email is consul@mfa.gov.by,” the State Border Committee informs.
