Over 2.8 thousand trucks stuck in traffic jams on Georgian Military Road

The North Ossetia Data Center has said that a road leading to the Russian border with Georgia was temporarily closed to large vehicles.

This decision was made due to snowstorms and poor visibility, Interfax reports.

The electronic queue collected 2,819 heavy trucks at the Upper Lars checkpoint on the Russian side.

The Mtskheta-Stepantsminda-Lars highway is periodically closed due to snowfall and the danger of an avalanche.
