Sevastopol will attract Cossacks to work at checkpoints on non-working days

The authorities of Sevastopol decided to increase the number of checkpoints at the entrance to the city to check the QR codes of visitors during non-working days from October 30 to November 7. Alexei Krasnokutsky, deputy DIRECTOR of the city's public security department, told reporters about this, TASS reports.

This decision was made due to the situation with the CORONAVIRUS and the appeals of citizens, said Krasnokutsky. Additional control points will be deployed at the exit from the village of Orlinoe, on the Yalta-Sevastopol highway (Cape Sarych), in the village of Andreevka and in the village of Vishnevoe. According to Krasnokutsky, more than 200 people will work at the checkpoints every day: employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Cossacks and combatants.

Earlier, the authorities decided to set up roadblocks at the railway station, near the villages of Goncharnoye, Ternovka and Frontovoe, at 257 km of the Tavrida highway (the Anchor stele) and at the turn from the Orlovsky bridge to the village of Vishnevoe.

“Citizens living in all settlements of Sevastopol will move without restrictions,” Krasnokutsky said. The official also said that the authorities have opened a telephone hotline to clarify the operation of the checkpoints. Emergency cases will be considered individually.
