Karachi [ Pakistan ], October 29 (ANI): Tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan have brought the country's transport network to a grinding halt, inflicting massive economic and humanitarian losses. According to Imdad Hussain Naqvi, Senior Vice Chairman of the Goods Transport Association, thousands of trucks and trailers loaded with goods bound for Afghanistan and Central Asian states are stuck at ports and highways due to Islamabad's political missteps.

Naqvi said that the escalating hostility between the two neighbouring countries has left transporters in a dire state. "Our trucks have stopped near the border with no access to food, water, or security," he explained, adding that drivers are relying on each other for safety in the absence of government support.
