Pakistan Strikes Terrorist Camps in Afghanistan Border Region

Pakistan announced that it carried out strikes on seven terrorist camps along the border with Afghanistan, in retaliation for suicide attacks on Pakistani soil. These attacks are attributed to armed groups supported by Kabul. The Pakistani government stated that the strikes were carried out based on intelligence and followed three suicide attacks since the start of Ramadan. Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan have deteriorated since the Taliban regained power in 2021. Pakistan accuses Kabul of harboring armed groups that attack its territory, which the Afghan government denies. Cross-border clashes have become frequent. The escalation of tensions between the two countries raises concerns about regional stability and security. The situation requires diplomatic efforts to restore trust and prevent further conflict. Counter-terrorism and border security are common challenges that require cooperation.
