Pakistan Defends Operations in Afghanistan, Rejects Taliban Allegations of Civilian Casualties
Published
Pakistan has said that the military operations carried out in Afghan territory were conducted in self-defence. The Government of Pakistan has rejected Taliban allegations that ordinary civilians were killed.
Pakistan's position is that it was compelled to take such measures to protect its citizens and security personnel. According to Pakistan, these operations targeted terrorist groups that carry out attacks inside Pakistan from across the border.
On the other hand, Taliban officials have alleged that ordinary civilians were also targeted in these operations. Pakistan has refused to accept these claims and said that it is acting under its right of self-defence.
Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan have been strained in recent days. In this situation, all eyes are on border stability and bilateral relations between the two countries. The situation may become clearer once further details emerge.
