A traffic jam due to bad weather formed at the Upper Lars checkpoint on the border of the Russian Federation and Georgia

A traffic jam formed before entering the Upper Lars checkpoint on the border of Russia and Georgia on April 9. Izvestia showed footage from the scene.

It is noted that the movement of all types of vehicles is prohibited in both directions on the Vladikavkaz—Lars section.

As an eyewitness told Izvestia, many motorists do not wait for the passage to open and turn around. However, judging by the footage, there are still cars in place waiting for the restrictions to be lifted.
