Afghan Taliban regime’s unprovoked action along the Pakistan–Afghanistan border was given an immediate and effective response, according to a statement released by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on Thursday.
In a post on X, the ministry said that the Afghan Taliban miscalculated and opened unprovoked fire on multiple locations across the Pak-Afghan border in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, which is being met with an immediate and effective response by Pakistan’s security forces.
“Taliban regime forces are being delivered punishment in Chitral, Khyber, Mohmand, Kurram and Bajaur sectors,” it added.
Early reports confirm heavy casualties on the Afghan side with multiple posts and equipment destroyed, said the ministry.
Pakistan will take all necessary measures to ensure its territorial integrity and the safety and security of its citizens, it added.
