DHL withdraws from transportation services in Russia

Logistics giant DHL will withdraw from all domestic transportation services within Russia from 1 September, the company said on July 29.

It blamed technical issues with IT systems and infrastructure, operational difficulties and legal constraints, Sky News reports.

DHL, part of the Deutsche Post DHL Group, halted DHL deliveries to Russia in early March.

After 1 September, DHL International will only provide express-delivery services from Russia to other countries, the company said.
