Iraqi PM Approves Re-opening of Border Crossing with Syria

Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi has approved the re-opening of al-Qaim border crossing between Iraq and Syria, media reports confirmed. The border was closed for trade and tourism since the fall of the al-Qaim town, Anbar province, to the ISIS. Despite the liberation of the area late in 2017, security concerns pushed the Iraqi authorities to keep the gate open only for official and military traffic. The order also comes as a sign of normalization in the official ties between the Iraqi government and the Syrian regime. According to officials, al-Qaim border crossing will be open once again on Monday this week.
