Iranian train convoys for Syria

Director General of the Iranian Bares company for convoys, Rida Razazi, said on Tuesday that the first shipment of train convoys for transporting cereals had been exported to Syria's general railway establishments. The first shipment includes 120 convoys out of 360 contracted upon between the Syrian and Iranian sides at a cost of US $17 million.

Razazi expressed hope that his company will be able to export the rest of the convoys to Syria by the end of the current year.
