In mid-October 2026, Pakistan and Iran closed two major border crossings, Gabd-Rimdan and Taftan, citing security and technical issues. This disrupted Pakistan's daily LPG imports of about 7,000 metric tons, mainly from Iran, causing hundreds of tankers to be stranded and LPG prices to soar. Pakistan imports nearly 70% of its annual LPG needs, mostly from Iran, making the closure a severe supply shock.
