Aaj Tak · world

Afghanistan's defense ministry claims its forces killed 28 fighters and captured 32 who crossed from Pakistan into the eastern province of Nangarhar. The ministry alleges these fighters, including Islamic State members and former Afghan security personnel, were supported by Pakistani militias. Pakistan has vehemently denied these accusations, calling them baseless and untrue. Kabul insists Pakistani intelligence trained and sent former Afghan security personnel to Afghanistan for attacks. This border tension follows recent deadly attacks in Pakistan, escalating mutual accusations of supporting terrorists.
