Pakistan attacks the Afghanistan border

Pakistan’s military said it attacked a border post in Afghanistan after its security sources reported that, following the foiling of an armed group’s attempt to cross the border, Taliban fighters opened fire and Pakistan’s forces returned fire. (Sources: Shargh, Alif, Hamshahri)

Pakistan has repeatedly said it will carry out military strikes until militant attacks originating in Afghanistan are curbed, while the Taliban say they have not allowed any group to operate from Afghan territory against another country. (Sources: Shargh, Alif)
