Pak vs Afghanistan Escalates: Pak Counters With Airstrikes?
For some time things are not going well between Pakistan and Afghanistan and both nations are locking horns with each other.
After Afghanistan fell to the Taliban forces, the equations the country had with other nations went for a toss. With the Taliban taking over, everything went upside down. For some time things are not going well between Pakistan and Afghanistan and both nations are locking horns with each other.
As an example of this, Pakistan is said to have launched an airstrike in Afghanistan. The attack left eight dead including children. The Taliban did not like it and said that they would give a strong response. It is being reported that Afghanistan is also giving a strong response to the attack.
As per the media reports, Pakistan launched airstrikes on Afghanistan in the eastern border provinces earlier today. It is said that the attacks killed five women and three children. In response, the Taliban forces deployed a big force along the border.
However, it is said that Pakistan launched an airstrike in response to the attack that happened a few days back. It is being reported that Pakistan gave a swift response to the attack that killed a few soldiers in the country. Pakistan and the Taliban had a war of words on this already.
Pakistan vowed to give a sharp response to this. Days after this, Pakistan launched an airstrike leaving eight dead. After the attack, motor shells are said to have been fired from the Afghanistan territory.
The alleged attack and counterattack are seen as another example of the tense scene at the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan. With no sides showing no sign of stepping down and taking a back step, we have to wait and see what more would happen next.
