Pakistan and Taliban clashed, Pakistani army opened fire [TKB World]

Pakistan has been supporting the Taliban in Afghanistan since the beginning, but now it has started showing its bitter sides. Taliban soldiers have stopped the Pakistani army from building a security fence on the border between the two countries. Afghan officials have given this information on Wednesday. It is worth noting that this dispute on the border between the two countries has come to the fore when Islamic countries from all over the world gathered in Islamabad to discuss the humanitarian disaster of Afghanistan.

Despite opposition from Afghanistan, Pakistan has laid siege in some areas

Pakistan has cordoned off most of the 2,600-km border, despite opposition from the Afghan government. The demarcation of the British era was also challenged in the area where Pakistan has laid siege. This siege divides families and tribes on both sides.

What did the Defense Ministry of Afghanistan say?

The siege on this border has been termed ‘illegal’ by the Afghan Defense Ministry. Defense Ministry spokesman Inayatullah Khawarzami said Taliban troops had prevented Pakistani forces from imposing an “illegal” border cordon in the eastern province of Nangarhar.  He did not pay attention to the incident of dispute on the border saying that everything is normal now. At the same time, when the Pakistani Army was asked in this regard, there was no response from their side.
