There will be no festive ho-hoo-hoo. Your gifts from Chinese shops are stuck at the border in Blagoveshchensk. Where, for the first time in the last 100 years, three months of precipitation fell. There are three-meter snowdrifts in the city.
People bought up all the shovels, which is why the price for one piece soared to 100 thousand rubles. Some residents move around Blagoveshchensk on snowmobiles and snowboards, attached to cars. The international bridge in China has been blocked; trucks with parcels and gifts are parked at the checkpoint.
The city authorities declared a state of emergency. They stated that the crossing will only open when the weather improves. Also, kindergartens stopped working in Blagoveshchensk. Schools and colleges also closed – all students were transferred to distance learning.
