Iran resumes commercial flights to Afghanistan
Gulf Times
Passengers get off from a privately owned Iranian airline Mahan Air flight at the airport in Kabul on September 15, 2021.
Iran on Wednesday resumed commercial flights to neighbouring Afghanistan, where the Taliban took control last month.
"Today Mahan Air carried passengers between Mashhad and Kabul airport," Fars news agency reported, referring to Iran's second-largest city, in the northeast, and the Afghan capital.
"At present, this airliner is returning to Mashhad with passengers."
It was the first such flight between the two countries since the return of the Taliban to power on August 15.
