Ukraine is prohibiting Russian men aged from 16 to 60 from entering the territory of the country, Ukraine's Border Service says in a statement. Exceptions will be made only for those travelling with children or whose close relatives living in Ukraine have recently died or are terminally ill. In that a case an official document will be required, the body explains.

 

The decision was made amid increasing tensions in the eastern regions of the country.
