Krystallopigi border crossing ordered closed due to pandemic

Greece on Thursday announced the closing of one of the country’s northern border crossings, part of emergency measures to contain the ‘second wave’ of the coronavirus pandemic in the east Mediterranean country.

Specifically, the Krystallopigi crossing with Albania will close, while the Nymphaia crossing with North Macedonia will be open only for trucks. The frontier posts of Kakavia, Evzoni and Promachonas, on border with Bulgaria, will remain open.
