The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced that Pakistan and the Afghan Taliban regime have agreed to a temporary 48-hour ceasefire starting today at 6 p.m., following Pakistan\u2019s \u2018precision strikes\u2019 on Taliban and terrorist hideouts in Kandahar and Kabul.<\/p>\n

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the decision was made at the Taliban\u2019s request and with the mutual consent of both sides. During the ceasefire, both parties will engage in constructive dialogue to make a sincere effort to find a positive solution to a complex but solvable issue, the ministry added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis temporary pause aims to create space for meaningful discussions and promote stability along the border,\u201d the ministry said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Pakistan conducted ‘precision strikes’ in Kandahar, Kabul<\/p>\n

Earlier, Pakistan carried out ‘precision strikes’ against Afghan Taliban regime and terrorists hideouts in Kandahar and Kabul, destroying several Taliban battalion headquarters, according to security sources.<\/p>\n

In Kandahar, the Pakistan Army struck Battalion Headquarters 4 and 8, as well as Border Brigade 5. \u201cAll targets were carefully selected to be isolated from civilian populations and were successfully destroyed,\u201d said security officials.<\/p>\n

In Kabul, the operation targeted the leadership and central hub of the Fitna al-Hindustan network. Security sources emphasised that the Pakistan Army is fully capable of delivering a strong response to any act of aggression.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese operations demonstrate our capability to precisely neutralise terrorist infrastructure while minimising risks to civilians,\u201d officials added.<\/p>\n

Tensions flared after Taliban forces launched an attack in Kurram region last night. Afghan Taliban regime, along with TTP terrorists, referred to by the government as ‘Fitna al-Khawarij’, opened indiscriminate fire on Pakistani positions, prompting a strong and decisive response from the Pakistan Army.<\/p>\n

The retaliatory strikes reportedly inflicted significant damage on multiple Taliban posts, with fires breaking out across the border. Security officials said a Taliban regime tank was destroyed, and fighters were seen fleeing their positions, leaving behind several bodies of their fallen comrades.<\/p>\n

In another engagement within the Kurram sector, a moving tank was precisely targeted and destroyed, described by sources as a \u201chighly professional and skillful strike.\u201d<\/p>\n

Security sources also confirmed that the Pakistan Army struck the militant training camp in Naeem, located across the border, which was used to train insurgents for operations in the Kurram sector.<\/p>\n

Afghan Taliban regime attack at Chaman border<\/p>\n

In a major escalation along the Pak-Afghan border, Afghan Taliban regime, in coordination with terrorists linked to Fitna al-Khawarij, launched attacks at three different points near the Chaman border early on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n

The Pakistan Army responded swiftly, killing at least 20 terrorists and forcing the rest to retreat, said security sources. According to the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR), the attack occured at four different locations in Spin Boldak area of Balochistan.<\/p>\n

During the attack, terrorists blew up the Pak-Afghan Friendship Gate, a key crossing point that facilitates trade and civilian movement between the two countries. Officials said the destruction of the gate demonstrates the Afghan Taliban\u2019s opposition to legitimate cross-border commerce and regional stability.<\/p>\n

The coordinated assault targeted both border security infrastructure and Pakistani military positions. The counteroffensive by Pakistani forces repelled the attackers, inflicting significant losses on the terrorist\u2019s side.<\/p>\n

The terrorists used nearby villages as hideouts and civilians as human shields. A tactic increasingly employed by both the Afghan Taliban and Khawarij elements to avoid direct engagement, said security officials.<\/p>\n

Tensions escalated after unprovoked firing by Afghan Taliban regime<\/p>\n

Tensions along the Pak-Afghan border escalated last week when clashes erupted after Afghan Taliban regime opened unprovoked fire at multiple locations in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) and Balochistan, prompting a swift and forceful response from the Pakistan Army, which destroyed several Afghan posts and killed dozens of Afghan soldiers and militants.<\/p>\n

The coordinated assault originated across several key sectors, including Angoor Adda, Bajaur, Kurram, Dir, Chitral in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Baramcha in Balochistan. The firing, security sources said, was aimed at facilitating the illegal entry of Khwarij \u2014 the state-designated term for the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) \u2014 into Pakistani territory.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Pakistan Army responded immediately and decisively,\u201d security sources said. \u201cThe counteroffensive effectively targeted and destroyed multiple Afghan posts at border. Dozens of Afghan soldiers and Khwarij were killed in retaliatory fire.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over 200 Afghan Taliban killed<\/p>\n

A day after Pakistan Army said its security forces killed more than 200 Afghan Taliban in overnight clashes along the Pak-Afghan border, while confirming that 23 of its soldiers were martyred during the crossfire, according to the military\u2019s media wing, Inter-Services Public Relations.<\/p>\n

According to an ISPR, the confrontation took place on the night of October 11\u201312, when Afghan Taliban forces, supported by \u201cIndian-sponsored elements of Fitna al Khwarij,\u201d launched an unprovoked attack on Pakistan along the border.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe cowardly action, which included fire and a few physical raids, was aimed at destabilizing the border areas to facilitate terrorism, furthering FAK’s nefarious designs,\u201d the statement said. Fitna al Khwarij is a term coined by the state for terrorists affiliated with the proscribed outfit Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).<\/p>\n

ISPR said that, exercising the right of self-defence, the alert Armed Forces of Pakistan repelled the assault decisively along the entire border and inflicted heavy casualties on Taliban forces and affiliated Khwarijs.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrecision fires and strikes, as well as physical raids, were directed against Taliban camps and posts, terrorist training facilities, and support networks operating from Afghan territory, including elements linked to Fitna al Khwarij (FAK), Fitna al Hindustan (FAH), and ISKP\/Daesh. All possible measures were taken to avoid collateral damage and to protect civilian lives,\u201d the statement added.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
