Pakistan on Saturday partially reopened the Torkham border crossing, enabling thousands of Afghan refugees stranded for nearly three weeks to return home.
Officials confirmed that the reopening was limited strictly to pedestrian movement, while all other cross-border activities — including trade, which involves hundreds of trucks daily — remain suspended.
The Torkham border was sealed on October 12 following deadly military clashes between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Saturday’s reopening came after a breakthrough in week-long negotiations mediated by Turkey and Qatar, which resulted in a ceasefire aimed at de-escalating tensions and preventing a wider conflict.
Authorities from both sides reported that the ceasefire was holding, with no new incidents of fire reported along the volatile 2,611-kilometre Durand Line — a border Afghanistan has never formally recognized.
