Donetsk, Jul 20 – DAN.  DPR has again reopened Elenovka checkpoint at the contact line to let people across the border.

“DPR has reopened the crossing point for one day, it is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.,” deputy head of the DPR Ministry of State Security Border Guard Service Alexander Goncharov said DAN.

The humanitarian corridor opened for the sixth time since June 22, when the first group of people was allowed across the border. Last week, it opened on July 17.

To enter the DPR, travelers must be granted clearance from the anti-coronavirus HQ; for exit they must have a registration in Ukraine.
