F.P. Report

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Wednesday decided to facilitate the movement of cargo trucks and containers to cross-over into Afghanistan through Torkham and Chaman border crossing points thrice a week (on Monday, Wednesday and Friday) from April 10, 2020 onwards.

The decision was taken in response to Afghanistan Government’s special request, and based on humanitarian considerations, a Foreign Office statement issued here said.
