Georgia has closed its section of the Bavra customs point on the border with Armenia due to the heavy snow and snowstorm. The Armenian Ministry of Territorial Administration and Emergency Situations has received the relevant alarm from the Armenian Ministry of Finance.
The Ministry of Territorial Administration and Emergency Situations employees contacted the citizens of Armenia in the neutral zone of the Armenian-Georgian border and urged them to return to Armenia to avoid further traffic jam and other emergency situations. The Ministry also calls on the citizens of Armenia to abstain from trips via the Bavra checkpoint. The Georgian side, in turn, is taking measures to clean the roads.
