The crossing will remain closed against cargo vehicles for four days effective from the first day of Eid, said Border Police Spokesperson Abidullah Farooqi.

He told Pajhwok Afghan News that all passengers should avoid traveling on the said route, which will be open to passengers from noon to 3 p.m. on the third and fourth days of Eid.

According to him, the route will be closed against heavy vehicles and empty trucks for the four days of Eid.
