Arab Sea Newspaper - Follow-ups:
A exchange of fire on the Afghan-Pakistani border on Friday night resulted in the death of four people and the injury of others, according to local authorities in the Spin Boldak area of Afghanistan to Agence France-Presse. The Taliban authorities in Afghanistan and the Pakistani government exchanged accusations on Friday, blaming each other for this "unjustified" attack. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid announced in a short message on the "X" platform on Friday evening: "Unfortunately, tonight Pakistan again launched attacks on Spin Boldak in Kandahar, and the forces of the Emirate of Taliban were forced to respond." The clashes come about two months after previous confrontations between the two sides, which ended after a week of fighting with a truce and an agreement to start negotiations that did not yield tangible results. The previous clashes, which occurred on October 11, prompted Pakistan to close all border crossings to movement and trade, leading to significant economic losses.
