Torkham border closed for all types of immigration
€[KhaamaPress] Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said on Tuesday that all types of immigration, departure and arrival, was being closed atTorkham border from today.

The minister added that the decision was taken on the advice of the National Command and Operations Centre (NCOC).

Pakistain had closed its Torkham border over one month earlier after corona virus positive cases surged in Afghanistan.

The border is still closed but Pak citizens could cross the border into Afghanistan despite the closure. As per the latest order, Pak citizens will not be allowed either to cross the border as the ban include both departure and arrival.

It comes as Pakistain embassy in Kabul said yesterday that it is willing to repatriate Paks stranded in Afghanistan after Saudi Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century...
suspended flights from Afghanistan as a result of rapid spread of covid-19.

Four thousand Pak citizens are now staying in Afghanistan who had come to Afghanistan to fly to Saudi Arabia.

Pak government had given permission to Afghan students, studying in Pakistain, to cross Torkham border so that they do not lose their semesters.

The dry port will remain open for transit purposes and the import and export of goods will continue as normal.
