Afghan leadership tends to blame Pakistan through misleading narratives, They are using such propaganda to carry out cross-border violations, creating instability between two countries and justifying their actions by blaming Pakistan without any evidence.
In response of Afghan forces ,ISIS & TTP attack on Pakistan: Many check posts of Afghan forces ,TTP & ISIS are destroyed by Armed forces of Pakistan.Pakistani outposts at several places along the Pak-Afghan border at about 10:30 pm tonight.
In Eastern Afghanistan, the 201st Khalid bin Walid Army Corps announced in a press release that its units carried out attacks on Pakistani military outposts near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border opposite Nangarhar and Kunar provinces.
Afghan forces attacked Pakistani border post Baram Cha in Balochistan on the Helmand axis.
Heavy firing and weaponry was used in Tirah in Khyber District, Dir, Bajaur, Kurram, Angoor Adda in South Waziristan and Chitral.
The points selected for firing were those from where the terrorists were infiltrated into KP and Balochistan.
Pakistan forces gave a befitting response to their aggressive acts. Two Afghan check posts along the Kurram border were destroyed, killing five Afghan soldiers. Two Pakistani soldiers were injured and one civilian martyred.
A large number of forward posts and bunkers of the Afghan Army were destroyed. Their forward posts couldn’t provide covering fire to the militants because of intense firing from Pakistani troops and use of artillery and tanks. The HQs providing support to the Khwarijs were also struck and destroyed. Pak Army artillery destroyed Duran Mela and Tukmanzai camps in Afghanistan.
Consequently, a large number of infiltrators were sent to hell and their dead bodies as well as of the Afghan soldiers were littered all over the border areas. The Afghan forces were forced to abandon their posts and flee to safety leaving behind their dead bodies.
The hideouts of TTP and Daesh in Nangarhar, Kunar, Nuristan, Paktia, Khost and other places were also targeted by drones and missiles. Reportedly , Fatah missiles were also fired. Pakistani jet fighters hovered over the combat zones and remained ready to counter any air threat.
Strong and swift actions by Pakistan silenced the Afghan guns and deflated their puffed up ego and arrogance.
Afghanistan’s attacks and Pakistan’s counter attacks took place when the Afghan Foreign Minister Mutaqi was being warmly hosted in India, and the unnatural allies were planning and coordinating future strategies against Pakistan.
