Federal government has announced opening of Pak-Afghan border at Torkham and Chaman posts round the clock for six days per week, Radio Pakistan reported on Saturday.

The border was closed on March 27 as part of measures taken to stop the spread of COVID-19.

Later it was opened for three days a week last month.

Both the borders will remain open 24/7 for six days except from Saturday which will be reserved for the pedestrian move only.

During six days when the border will be opened, unlimited number of trucks will be allowed to cross per day while ensuring proper SOPs and guidelines for both Afghan Bilateral Trade and Afghan Transit Trade.
