Twenty-four heavy trucks have been detained at the Syrym automobile checkpoint, border crossing into Russia, for attempting to export onions from Kazakhstan, in violation of a recently implemented three-month export ban. The ban, introduced on January 28, was a necessary measure to halt the export of onions, with the suspension of phytosanitary certificates necessary for export. The situation arose due to a delay in processing vehicles with onion cargo and phytosanitary certificates issued prior to the ban. The drivers were carrying out the requirement to remove the onion cargo from Kazakhstan until the effective date of the ban. The situation at the Syrym checkpoint has now been resolved, with the trucks returning to the Turkestan region.
