Pakistan reopens border crossing with Afghanistan after shooting

Pakistan and Afghanistan have agreed to reopen the border crossing between the two countries. The Chaman crossing was closed on November 13 after Afghan soldiers shot at a Pakistani soldier. There was a brief exchange of fire between the armies following the incident, which left the soldier injured. Pakistan has reopened a key border crossing with neighboring Afghanistan a week after an Afghan gunman killed a Pakistani security guard there, forcing a closure of the crossing.
