In Poland, farmers' protest against Ukrainian grain and the "green" policy is escalating. Agrarians promise to block all checkpoints on the border with Ukraine as part of a mass protest on February 20. The pause in the blockade did not last a month.

Farmers are also planning to block the approaches to seaports and railway stations, taking into account the past experience when the roads were used to bypass blocked roadblocks. The action will last for 30 days.

In addition, the agrarians called on Polish citizens to support their protest, as, according to them, its main goal is to ensure the food security of the republic.

Ukrainian carriers have announced a mirror action for their Polish colleagues who travel to Ukraine.


It is not excluded that these actions will be used by provocateurs, which happened more than once during the past blockades. However, now the degree of tension has become much higher, and Poles, having learned from the experience of their European colleagues, have begun to act a little more rigidly, opening trucks and checking their contents.

⚡European satellite to crash back to Earth within week.

A large satellite which ended its mission 13 years ago will come crashing down to Earth in an uncontrolled manner within the next week, but there is almost zero chance it will hurt anyone, the European Space Agency has said.

The ESA’s ERS-2 satellite, which launched in 1995 on a mission to observe Earth, was slowly but deliberately brought down to avoid creating more debris orbiting the planet

Such space junk can pose a threat to active satellites as well as the International Space Station.

The agency predicted that ERS-2 will re-enter the atmosphere on Monday — give or take three days on either side.
