A line of vehicles has formed at the main border checkpoint with Greece, Promachonas on the Greek side, because of security measures put in place by the Greek authorities, the Bulgarian Ministry of the Interior has announced.
According to Greek officials, due to the enhanced security measures 100% border control has been introduced. A coordination meeting between Bulgarian and Greek border authorities is scheduled to specify measures for alleviating traffic.

The border police are advising people travelling to Greece to also use checkpoints along the Bulgarian-Greek border other than Promachonas andMakaza.
