Until this day queues of a few kilometers are observed in Lars. In this hot weather people stay in queue for days, due to which they have problems with the nerves.

Note, from June 23 due to heavy rains a part of Tbilisi-Vladikavkaz highway was flooded by the Terek River. As a result, the only overland route connecting Armenia with Russia—Verin Lars checkpoint was closed.
