QuettaPakistan halted trade with Iran at the Gabd-Rimdan and Taftan crossings.
Gabd-Rimdan reportedly carried 4,000 tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas daily, and traders warn of Karachi shortages.

Passenger traffic through the crossing remains open, an Iranian transit official said.
The Quetta chamber of commerce told traders to place no new orders until further notice.
