The recent events involving Pakistan’s airstrikes in Afghanistan have escalated tensions between the two neighboring countries.
Eight people, all women and children, were killed in ‘reckless’ airstrikes by the Pakistani army in Afghanistan’s border areas. In fact, this news is confirmed by the spokesperson of the Taliban government
Border tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan have increased since the Taliban government seized power in 2021, with Islamabad claiming militant groups regularly carry out attacks from the neighboring country.
According to sources, Pakistani aircraft bombed civilian homes in Khost and Paktika provinces, near the border with Pakistan, around 3 a.m.
The Taliban government “strongly condemns these attacks and calls this reckless action a violation and an attack on the sovereignty of Afghanistan
The attacks come after seven Pakistani troops were killed in an attack on Pakistani territory for which the country’s President Asif Ali Zardari had vowed revenge.
He said: Pakistan has decided that whoever enters our borders, homes or country and commits terror, we will respond strongly to them, regardless of who it is or from which country.
Areas along the border have long been a stronghold for militant groups such as the Taliban group Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, Pakistan’s own Taliban group, which operates across the porous border with Afghanistan.
According to Taliban authorities, Pakistani military helicopters carried out attacks along the Afghan side of the border in 2022, killing at least 47 people.
The TTP issued an official statement denying that Monday’s attacks targeted the group and that its members operate from Pakistan.
Efforts are being made through diplomatic channels to de-escalate the situation, but the incident has increased concerns about stability in the region. There are fears that further escalation could worsen existing tensions and lead to wider conflict.
As the situation continues to unfold, both Pakistan and Afghanistan are under pressure to find a peaceful solution to avoid further destabilization in the region.
