PESHAWAR, Pakistan - The main Afghanistan-Pakistan land border crossing reopened on Friday after a nine-day closure, a senior Pakistani official told Reuters.

The Torkham border crossing between the neighbouring nations had been closed since last week after forces from both sides exchanged fire, stranding thousands of travellers and hundreds of trucks laden with goods. REUTERS
