Queues are growing on the border between Ukraine and Poland's Lublin Voivodeship, because vehicle processing at the crossing points is temporarily stopped whenever air raid alerts are in effect. The Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda reported this on 16 October.

According to the report, the wait at the Dorohusk crossing has reached 40 hours. At Hrebenne, the wait exceeds 24 hours.

The source ties the processing stoppages directly to the air raid alerts. It gives no further details, such as the length of the queues or the situation at other crossings.
