Cross-border trade between Afghanistan and Iran resumed on Saturday from a dry port in the western Herat province that was shut down after a massive fire last week.
The blaze at a customs post at the Islam Qala dry port caused losses worth over $100 million to Afghanistan, according to government estimates.
The halt in operations at the port led to a shortage of commodities, mainly petroleum products, and hike in prices in Afghanistan.
