SANLIURFA
Syrian administration opened Tellebyat border gate with Turkey after six months.
Syria had closed the gate unilaterally six months ago by saying that it would make a repair at the gate.
Mayor Abdulhakim Ayhan of Akcakale town in Turkey's southeastern Sanliurfa province told AA on Sunday that they were pleased with the re-opening of the gate which was an important source of income for Akcakale economy.
Syria, which has been struggling with inner clashes, had closed the gate along Akcakale on December 7, 2011.
