Al-Qa'im border crossing, Border crossing and bridge between Syria and Iraq near Husaybah, Iraq.
The crossing spans across the Euphrates River, connecting the Iraqi city of Husaybah with Abu Kamal in Syria's Deir ez-Zor Governorate.
The crossing point closed for eight years during regional conflicts, including the Syrian Civil War and Iraqi Civil War, until its reopening in September 2019.
The border infrastructure includes separate processing areas for commercial vehicles and pedestrians, reflecting the diverse needs of cross-border communities.
Located 340 kilometers from Baghdad and 450 kilometers from Damascus, the crossing operates under the management of the Iraqi Border Ports Authority.
The facility processed uranium ore during the 1980s at its Chemical Fertilizer Complex, using phosphate from nearby mineral deposits.
