The deteriorating security situation in the Donetsk region is leading to an increase in the number of weapons being smuggled across its borders. As a result, the workload for the canine teams of the 18th Slovyansk Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine is growing. Only a thorough inspection of vehicles allows them to uncover “surprises” of unknown origin and purpose.
Every day, the National Guard’s four-legged officers and their handlers are on duty at checkpoints in Donetsk Oblast. And almost every day, they discover contraband in vehicles heading both toward the region and toward safer parts of the country.
