The Pakistani government has formally urged the Afghan Taliban to cease supporting cross-border militant attacks, citing rising security threats along the border.
Officials in Islamabad issued a statement emphasizing that such actions undermine regional stability and violate international norms. The warning comes amid increased reports of militant groups operating from Afghan territory into Pakistani regions.
This follows a series of attacks in the past month, with local authorities attributing several incidents to groups linked to the Taliban. Pakistan has previously imposed sanctions on militant factions and called for cooperation in counterterrorism efforts.
The situation reflects ongoing tensions between Pakistan and the Taliban, which have persisted since the 2021 fall of Afghanistan. Islamabad has consistently accused the Taliban of harboring militants and facilitating attacks on its soil.
The border region remains a focal point for security concerns, with both countries struggling to manage the flow of militants and illicit goods. Recent diplomatic talks have focused on improving intelligence sharing and joint counterterrorism strategies.
