The Hezva border "remains closed" to the passage of commercial goods.

According to Jahanbakhsh Sanjabi Shirazi, head of the Iran-Iraq Chamber of Commerce, the Hezba border is still closed to the passage of commercial goods.

Mr. Sanjabi told the Iranian news agency Avoda, Ilana: "The Shlamcha border has been opened for commercial truck traffic and the passage of trucks has resumed since the 23rd of the river, but the Hezba border is still closed and the Iraqi side does not allow the entry of goods."

The head of the Iran-Iraq Chamber of Commerce is one of the merchants who demand that until the official reopening is announced "do not load any new commercial cargo just by relying on Hezba."

Yesterday, the governor of Gilnagarb announced the reopening of the Sumar border and the resumption of business activity from this border terminal.

A trade association of international transport companies, despite the opening of the border terminals between Iran and Iraq, "there is a stoppage of trucks". After a drone ground attack on the Saudi Arabian oil pipeline from east-west Iraqi territory, the Iraqi government closed four days ago (Saturday) border crossings such as Shalmacha and Khadaba, which caused a "25% increase in the cost of transporting goods."
