According to Pakistan military’s public relations wing, the Afghan Taliban, Khawarij launched cowardly attacks at four locations in Spin Boldak during the early hours of October 15, but Pakistani forces effectively repelled all assaults.
The attacks were carried out from divided villages, showing complete disregard for civilian safety and local populations. The Afghan Taliban also destroyed the Pak-Afghan Friendship Gate on their side of the border, which the ISPR said reflects a mindset opposed to mutual trade and tribal cooperation.
In the retaliatory action, 15 to 20 Taliban fighters were killed, and several others were injured, the ISPR said and added that intelligence reports indicate Taliban and Khawarij terrorists are regrouping at various staging points along the border.
