🧵 #Finland will close 4 border crossing points (#Vaalimaa, #Nuijamaa, #Niirala and #Imatra) on the eastern border with #Russia, starting from the night before Saturday. The restrictions are valid until February 18, 2024.

The restrictions are due to #Russia sending or planning to send immigrant flows towards Finland.
