    Two Ukrainian drivers who were waiting to cross the border have died inside their vehicles, both reportedly of natural causes. Polish protesters demand the re-imposition of pre-war rules on Ukrainian truckers, who have been exempted from the obligation of carrying transport permits. The change was introduced last year as part of the European Union’s “solidarity lanes,” which are meant to help the war-torn nation sustain its national economy and trading relations.

    Nothing I can say would describe the level of disgust I feel for the polish drivers.
