Belarus opens borders for mushroom pickers from Ukraine
Ukraine nationals from neighboring villages are allowed to cross the border with Belarus in order to collect berries and mushrooms.
Belarus' State Border Control Committee says the move aims "to allow ethnic Belarusians to feed their families in this difficult time for Ukraine."
The simplified border crossing procedure for berry and mushroom pickers from Ukraine will be effective from July 1 through August 10 and from September 30 through November 15, reports Radio Svaboda.
