Two border cities limit rail imports

TWO Chinese border cities are halting some commodity imports by rail to reduce the risk of COVID-19 infections coming in from other countries amid a fresh resurgence of the disease in northern areas of China.

Erenhot, a key transit hub next to Mongolia in northern China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, suspended from Sunday certain non-containerized imports by rail that require manual loading and unloading to prevent virus transmission, according to a local government statement. These include some cargoes for coal, oil, copper ore, zinc and iron ore. Suifenhe, which lies on the border with Russia, halted from yesterday some non-container goods arriving from overseas by rail, such as those for coal and non-gold mineral ore, according to domestic media.
