In addition, there is information that at night all vehicles heading to the capital are being checked without exception. Currently, 11 checkpoints have been organized on the approaches to Kyiv.

At these points, not only local residents are on duty, but also, according to rumors, even displaced persons from Crimea. The fortifications are being built from old tires, reinforced concrete slabs, and sand embankments. The guard consists of about 50–60 people, including special forces fighters and State Automobile Inspection officers.
