A truck blocks the highway from the Russian city of Samara to the Kazakh city of Oral. A traffic jam formed on the highway in the vicinity of the border crossing checkpoint after Putin announced a partial military mobilization in Russia in the wake of a series of setbacks in the country's war with Ukraine. Stuck in their cars for days, truck drivers started blocking passage for light vehicles that attempted to cross the border around the queue. Some people abandoned their cars and walked around 15-20 kilometers to the border crossing checkpoint. It is estimated that more than Russians have left the country since President Putin announced a partial military mobilization after a series of setbacks in the country's war with Ukraine. Some people left Russia by air yet many others attempted to cross the country's border by car or on foot.
