Starting on the evening of August 7, Greece introduces a ban on crossing all land border crossings of the country in the time period from 23.00 to 07.00, with the exception of the Kulata-Promachonas border checkpoint on the border with Bulgaria. This was announced by spokesman of the Greek government Stelios Petsas as part of the measures in connection with the rise of the number of cases of coronavirus infection in the country, BTA reports.

Yesterday, Greece banned the passage at night through the Kakavia border checkpoint with Albania, but starting tomorrow this measure will be extended to other border checkpoints with the exception of Promachonas.
