After nearly five months of suspension, maritime cargo transport between Iran’s Dayyer port and Qatar’s Al-Ruwais port has resumed. The route had been temporarily halted due to wartime conditions that disrupted regional trade. According to Iran’s commercial attaché in Doha, Abbas Abdolkhani, the resumption followed coordinated efforts between the Iranian embassy in Doha and relevant Qatari authorities.

Both Dayyer and Al-Ruwais ports are key hubs for regional commerce. During the conflict, Dayyer port suffered multiple attacks, severely affecting cargo movement along the route. Al-Ruwais serves as one of the main entry points for Iranian exports to Qatar, making the reopening of this sea route significant for bilateral trade.

The renewed operation is expected to reduce transportation costs and improve the speed and efficiency of goods delivery between the two countries. The report also noted that Qatar continues to play a mediating role between Iran and the United States in efforts to ease recent tensions.
