Iran Reopens Border with Kurdistan

Iran reopened today its border with Iraqi Kurdistan. The border was close 17 days ago in protest of the arrest of Mahmoud Farhadi. US military arrested Farhadi and accused him of being a highly-ranked officer of Quds Force and in charge of smuggling deadly roadside bombs into Iraq. Iran denies this and maintains that Farhadi is a provincial trade official. Farhadi is still in detention.
