Iran: Baghdad didn't warn on Shib closure
The article concerns Iraq's announcement of the closure of the Shib border crossing with Iran, which came into effect this morning, despite Tehran not having received prior notice according to the memorandum of understanding between the two countries. Iran confirmed that closing the crossing harms Iraqi commercial interests and emphasized the need for prior coordination in cases of prolonged closures. The crossing, located east of Maysan Province and serving trade exchange and passenger movement, is one of the most important checkpoints between Iraq and Iran. Its closure could disrupt truck traffic and commercial exchange, with some shipments potentially being redirected to other crossings such as Mehran, Bashmaq, and Khusro, even though these ports are still operating at partial levels.
