At the Senkivka border crossing point in the Chernihiv region, according to the results of a joint inspection of a truck interior with customs officers, border guards found a collection of military-historical miniatures from the Russian Federation.

A 45-year-old citizen of Ukraine, returning from Russia to Ukraine in a DAF truck, decided to earn extra money and transport metal figures of warriors of different epochs. In the driver's cab, law enforcement officers of the Chernihiv Border Guard Detachment found 474 figures of tin soldiers and collectible historical figures made by a Moscow studio.

According to the man, the goods were offered to him to move across the border for a fee by a Russian citizen in order to further sell to connoisseurs of historical and military miniatures in Ukraine.

The cost of one such miniature, for which they are sold on the Internet, is approximately 1.5 thousand hryvnias.

Therefore, according to preliminary estimates, the found figures cost more than 700 thousand hryvnias.

The collection of tin miniatures was confiscated and our compatriot was brought to justice.
