Polish farmers resumed their blockade at the Medyka -Shehyni border crossing with Ukraine on Feb. 12 .

They additionally blocked the Uhryniv-Dolhobychuv and Zosin-Ustyluh crossings, the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine said.

The protests center around imports of agricultural goods from Ukraine , which Polish agricultural groups claim present unfair competition to their own businesses.

Polish farmers announced the protests in advance, citing an alleged lack of action by Warsaw and Brussels to address the influx of Ukrainian goods.
