Taliban shut down Torkham border with Pakistan over alleged breach of commitments, while the exact nature of the alleged breach remains unclear.
The Afghan Taliban commissioner for Torkham said the border point had been closed down for travel and transit trade.
“Pakistan has not abided by its commitments and so the gateway has been shut down on the directions of (our) leadership,” Taliban commissioner at Torkham Maulavi Mohammad Siddique tweeted.
He advised the people of Afghanistan to avoid travelling to the border crossing in eastern Nangrahar province.
