Pakistan Urges Afghan Taliban to Stop Militants Using Afghan Territory for Attacks
Pakistan has urged Afghanistan's Taliban government to prevent militants from using Afghan territory to launch attacks inside Pakistan, warning that these groups could eventually threaten the Taliban's own rule. This appeal follows rising tensions marked by border clashes and Pakistani airstrikes. Pakistan alleges groups like Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan operate from Afghanistan, while the Afghan Taliban denies providing safe haven. The United Nations reported over 1,100 civilian casualties from cross-border violence in Afghanistan this year. Diplomatic efforts have so far not resolved the issue.
