💨 Abstract

The Torkham border crossing between Pakistan and Afghanistan reopened after 27 days of closure due to conflicts over construction activities. The standoff resulted in injuries and damage to properties. Elders from both sides negotiated a ceasefire until April 15 and agreed to halt the construction of checkposts. The border will initially reopen for cargo vehicles, with pedestrian and patient traffic resuming after infrastructure repairs.
