The land route on the border between Iran and Armenia from the neighboring country’s side has reopened and trucks and cars are now allowed to pass through, after it was shortly blocked by Azerbaijani forces, according to the spokesperson of the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration.
“According to the information received from the Meghri customs of Armenia and reports by drivers entering Iran from Armenia, the main road has reopened and the remaining trucks and buses in Kapan have been allowed to pass and are arriving at the border to head for their destination,” Rouhollah Latifi was quoted as saying by IRNA on Aug. 27.
He noted that Meghri, which is located across from Nurduz in East Azarbaijan Province, has announced that it is ready to readmit trucks and buses to pass through this Armenian customs office.
