Afghan Taliban Warn Pakistan Against Border Violations, Promise Response
The Afghan Taliban, through spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid, warned Pakistan against violating Afghan territory under the pretext of counter-terrorism, promising a "deadly and crushing response" to any such incursions. Mujahid denied claims that Afghan soil is used by militants like the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to launch attacks, urging Pakistan to address its internal security issues. The warning follows a deadly suicide bombing in Kohat, Pakistan, underscoring rising tensions. Despite disputes, the Taliban expressed willingness for dialogue and enhanced cooperation with Pakistan.
