The Kodari road section, a critical trade corridor linking China and Nepal, has been closed for six days, leaving freight containers stranded at the border.

The disruption began on July 13 following a heavy landslide at Liping and significant road subsidence near the Eco and Daklang areas, according to local reports.

The Tatopani route remains shut, halting the movement of goods through this key Himalayan passage.

The closure adds to a growing list of logistical bottlenecks affecting global supply chains.

Shippers are already reporting significant delays in moving containers from Tema Port's T3 terminal to inland depots in West Africa, creating a new chokepoint in the region.

Simultaneously, severe waterlogging at the Benapole Land Port in South Asia has damaged imported goods stored in warehouses, prompting traders to seek compensation from authorities.
