China’s foreign ministry said on Wednesday that Afghanistan and Pakistan agreed during peace talks in Urumqi to explore a comprehensive solution to the conflict that broke out between the two countries last October.<\/p>\n

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told a daily press briefing that both countries agreed at the meetings in China not to take actions that would escalate or complicate the situation. Mao added that China would continue to communicate with both countries and provide a platform for dialogue.<\/p>\n

Pakistan conveyed three core demands to the Afghan Taliban during the talks in Urumqi, as China tried\u00a0to convince both sides to agree on a five-point framework to resolve issues.<\/p>\n

The three demands put forward by Islamabad at the outset include Kabul formally declaring the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan\u00a0a terrorist organisation, dismantling its infrastructure, and providing verifiable proof of the action. These demands form the basis of Pakistan’s negotiating position, which sources say has hardened amid persistent security concerns.<\/p>\n

Last week, Information Minister Attaullah Tarar said that 796 Afghan Taliban operatives have been killed and more than 1,043 injured during the ongoing “Operation Ghazab Lil Haq”, launched in response to \u201cunprovoked action\u201d from across the Afghan border.<\/p>\n

The operation\u00a0resumed\u00a0following a temporary pause in deference to Eidul Fitr celebrations and requests from Islamic countries. The pause concluded at midnight between March 23 and 24.<\/p>\n

It was launched over a month ago in retaliation for the Afghan Taliban forces’ firing on multiple locations. Islamabad said its February air strikes that sparked the escalation were targeting terrorists. Islamabad accused Afghanistan of failing to act against terrorist groups that carry out attacks in Pakistan, which the Taliban government rejected.<\/p>\n

Providing a summary of the Afghan Taliban regime\u2019s losses on his X account, the information minister said that 286 check posts had been destroyed and 44 others captured by Pakistani security forces.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo hundred and forty-nine tanks, armoured vehicles and artillery guns have also been destroyed during the operation,\u201d he said. He added that air strikes effectively targeted 81 locations across Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

“As part of these operations on night 2\/3 April, an attempt to physically attack a border post in Ghulam Khan Sector by Afghan Taliban\/FAK (Fitna al-Khawarij) was comprehensively foiled in which they suffered heavy casualties, including up to 37 sent to hell and 80+ injured,” Tarar said.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
