History and Biodata

The Silk Bridge border crossing is the only connection between Zaranj city and Iran's Milak border crossing, with half of the bridge in Iran and the other half in Afghanistan. Along with the Islam Qala crossing (Herat Province), which is located on the Afghan-Iranian border, the Silk Bridge crossing (Nimruz Province) Abresham crossing aka the Silk Bridge is important for those intending to exit Afghanistan into Iran. The Silk Bridge in Nimruz province, located on the border between Afghanistan and Iran, is periodically overcrowded. Local sources reported that a new transit route will be built due to the inadequacy of the Silk Bridge, the only route for the transfer of commercial goods between Afghanistan and Iran in Nimruz province to solve the problems of traders and facilitate the passage of commercial goods.(20220918)
