Milak Border Crossing matters in the Hormuz Graph as an Afghanistan-facing trade point in northern Sistan and Baluchestan, close to Zabol and the Helmand border economy. Its role is distinct from Mirjaveh’s Pakistan-facing function and Chabahar’s maritime corridor logic. Milak connects road freight, customs handling, agricultural and consumer-goods flows, warehousing demand, and border-service activity in a low-density region where distance, security conditions, and infrastructure depth determine whether eastern trade can move reliably.
