Chief of the Army Staff (COAS) Field Marshal Asim Munir on Thursday lashed out at the Afghan Taliban regime for “providing all possible assistance” to Indian proxy terrorist groups operating from its soil.
The Afghan soil remains a safe sanctuary for Fitna al-khawarij and Fitna al-Hindustan terrorists despite Pakistan’s repeated efforts to improve ties with Kabul, he said during an interactive session with the Jirga of tribal elders in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Peshawar, read a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
Speaking to the meeting’s participants, Field Marshal Munir emphasised that Pakistan has always sought peace with all its neighbours, including Afghanistan.
However, Pakistan would not allow cross-border terrorism to be perpetrated from Afghan soil against it, he added.
This is a developing story and is being updated with new details.
