The Ghulam Khan border crossing in Afghanistan’s southeastern Khost province has been officially reopened for a period of 15 days, following a two-week closure that disrupted trade between Afghanistan and Pakistan, according to Border Police spokesperson Abidullah Uqab Farooqi.Farooqi stated on Tuesday, July 16, that the temporary reopening would allow for the resumption of cargo transportation and trade activities between traders and freight companies.
He emphasized that the move will help prevent further spoilage of perishable goods that had been stuck at the border.Ghulam Khan is considered one of the most critical trade gateways between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
It plays a vital role in the transportation of essential goods and raw materials between the two neighboring countries.The crossing had been closed by Pakistani authorities nearly two weeks ago without any formal explanation.
The abrupt shutdown caused significant disruptions for Afghan traders and truck drivers, with many reporting financial losses due to delayed shipments and rotting goods.While the border has now reopened temporarily, Pakistani officials have yet to issue any formal statement regarding either the initial closure or the rationale behind its reopening.The post Ghulam Khan border crossing in Khost temporarily reopened after two-week closure first appeared on TINS News | Afghanistan News.
