such border festivities have been recurrent in recent years, particularly in the southeastern provinces of Afghanistan.

This incident underscores the ongoing tensions between Afghanistan and Pakistain, exacerbated by cross-border militancy and territorial disputes. Both nations have accused each other of harboring krazed killer groups, leading to a complex and volatile security situation along their shared border.

While the Taliban has not issued an official statement regarding the clash, the Pak military has not provided details either. The lack of communication from both sides contributes to the uncertainty surrounding the event and highlights the challenges in managing border security and diplomatic relations in the region.

Fitrat: Islamic Emirate Has Evidence of ISIS Centers in Balochistan
2025-01-13
[ToloNews] Hamdullah Fitrat, the Deputy Spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate, stated that ISIS has been granted permission to operate under Pakistain’s governance.

Rejecting the claims of Khawaja Asif, Pakistain's Defense Minister, Fitrat said that the Islamic Emirate possesses evidence of an ISIS presence in Pakistain's Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
province.
”I’m rubber and you’re glue. Whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you,” he taunted.
Fitrat further said: "The production, training, and funding centers for ISIS are in Balochistan and other parts of Pakistain. It appears they have been allowed to operate under the protection of these entities and are carrying out destructive activities. All of this is documented, and we hold evidence. Pakistain’s security and other issues are their internal matters and have no connection to Afghanistan."

Previously, Pakistain’s Defense Minister claimed that some terrorist groups, including ISIS-K, are active on Afghan soil.

Khawaja Muhammad Asif stated: "According to the latest report of the UN Monitoring Team, over two dozen terrorist groups including TTP, al-Qaeda, ISKP, ETIM and IMU are operating in Afghanistan. Afghanistan remained the hub for ISKP’s recruitment and facilitation in 2024."

Fazl Rahman Oria, a political analyst, told TOLOnews: "The people of Pakistain are protesting peacefully, and in some cases, armed uprisings have occurred because they no longer want the current rulers to stay in power. To divert public attention, such accusations are sometimes made against Afghanistan and sometimes against India."

Salim Paigir, another political analyst, said: "The world knows that the nests of terrorism and ISIS still exist in Pakistain, and they are used against neighboring countries, including Afghanistan."

Verbal tensions between the two sides [Afghanistan and Pakistain] have intensified following Pakistain’s Arclight airstrike

Afghanistan
Islamic Emirate Condemns Pakistan's Rocket Attack on Kunar
2025-01-12
[ToloNews] The Islamic Emirate has condemned last night’s rocket attack by Pak forces on Sarkano District in Kunar Province
...one of the four N2KL provinces (Nangarhar, Nuristan, Kunar and Laghman). N2KL is the designation used by US and Coalition Forces for the rugged and very violent region opposite Pakistain's Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Northwest Frontier Province. Kunar is the center of the N2KL region. Its population is 95% Pashtun. It is adjacent to Bajaur Agency..
and has called for the cessation of such attacks by Pakistain.

Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson of the Islamic Emirate, told TOLOnews that such attacks by Pakistain on Afghanistan are not in the interest of either side and harm the relations between the two countries.

Mujahid stated: "In Kunar Province, rockets hit certain areas causing casualties. Livestock, in particular, have been killed. We condemn these rocket attacks by Pakistain and demand the cessation of such actions."

Pak forces targeted Sarkano District in Kunar with rocket attacks around 1:30 AM last night.

These rockets struck residential homes, resulting in the death of 10 livestock and forcing residents to leave their homes.

Meanwhile,
...back at the precinct house, Sergeant Maloney wasn't buying it. It was just too pat. The whole thing smelled phony, kind of like a dead mackeral but without the scales...
some residents of Kunar Province say that such attacks by Pakistain cause severe problems for Afghan citizens.

They have urged the Islamic Emirate officials to prevent such attacks.

Mahzabullah Mahzab, a resident of Kunar, said: "Sometimes, the Pak government carries out attacks that victimize ordinary people."

Parwiz Ghorzang, another resident of Kunar, said: "Pakistain carried out an attack late at night, causing significant difficulties for the people. We urge the government to prevent such attacks."

This comes after Pakistain conducted Arclight airstrike

Afghanistan
Islamic Emirate, Pakistani Forces Clash in Khost
2025-01-05
[ToloNews] Military festivities between the forces of the Islamic Emirate and Pakistain in Khost province
... across the border from Miranshah, within commuting distance of Haqqani hangouts such as Datta Khel and probably within sight of Mordor. Khost is populated by six different tribes of Pashtuns, the largest probably being the Khostwal, from which it takes its name...
ended this morning (Friday, January 3) after several hours.

According to local residents, the festivities began at 1:30 AM last night and continued until 5:00 AM.

Initially, Pak forces targeted the Alisher district of Khost with rocket attacks, and then the forces of the Islamic Emirate responded to these attacks.

The Islamic Emirate has announced that the festivities caused no casualties.

Some residents of Khost province have also criticized Pakistain’s attack on the Ali Sher district.

"Last night, at 1:30 AM, Pakistain launched rocket attacks, which Afghan forces defended against, and the festivities continued until 5:00 AM," said Hakeemullah, a resident of Khost.

"As a result of these festivities, people face numerous problems. Poor and impoverished individuals cannot afford transportation to the villages," said Dawlat Khan, another resident of Khost.

Verbal tensions and military festivities between Afghanistan and Pakistain are not new and have also occurred in the past.

"Pakistain is a close neighbor of Afghanistan, and it is necessary for this country to understand Afghanistan's current situation. Issues should be resolved through political, economic, and transit avenues via diplomatic channels," said Hadi Quraishi, a military analyst.

"These acts of violence and attacks yield no good results and bring nothing but hatred between the two nations," said Aziz Maarej, a former diplomat.

It is worth mentioning that on December 25, 2024, Pakistain carried out Arclight airstrike

Afghanistan
Taliban denies rumors of Pakistani military presence in Wakhan, Badakhshan
2025-01-01
[KhaamaPress] Amid increasing rumors about the presence of Pak military forces in Wakhan, Badakhshan province of Afghanistan, a spokesperson for the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
police command in Badakhshan addressed the issue.

Ihsanullah Kamgar told the Bakhtar News Agency that they are monitoring the borders and have not received any reports of Pak soldiers being present.

Following festivities between the Taliban and Pak military forces, some activists and users close to the Mighty Pak Army claimed that if the conflict between the Taliban border forces and Pakistain continues, Pak forces will capture Wakhan.

On Monday, the Taliban police spokesperson in Badakhshan told the Bakhtar Agency, "The country’s security forces are fully prepared to respond to any foreign threats at the borders, and border security is under strict supervision."

Meanwhile,
...back at the chili cook-off, Chuck and Manuel's rivalry was entering a new and more dangerous phase...
Serajuddin Haqqani, acting Interior Minister of the Taliban, met with China’s Ambassador to Kabul, Zhao Xing, to discuss the strategic importance of the Wakhan Corridor amid rumors of Pak military presence in the region.

Interior Ministry spokesperson Abdul Matin Qani later confirmed the meeting, stating that Haqqani and Zhao discussed the strategic significance of the Wakhan Corridor in Badakhshan, as rumors about Pak troops in the area circulated.

by Pak fighter jets and border festivities, Pak users have criticized the Taliban. These users, who are supportive of the Pak military, have labeled the Taliban—once a strong ally of Pakistain—as an enemy and an accomplice of India. Meanwhile,
...back at the chili cook-off, Chuck and Manuel's rivalry was entering a new and more dangerous phase...
critics of the Taliban view the group as a Pak puppet and remain suspicious of the growing tension between the Taliban and Pakistain.

The Wakhan Corridor is a strategically significant region in northeastern Afghanistan, sharing borders with China, Tajikistan, and Pakistain.

The situation in the Wakhan Corridor remains highly sensitive, with ongoing speculation about the interests of regional powers. While the Taliban maintains that it is vigilant and prepared to defend Afghanistan’s borders, the involvement of neighboring countries, particularly Pakistain, adds complexity to the region’s security dynamics.

As tensions rise, the strategic importance of Wakhan continues to attract international attention. The outcome of this issue could have significant implications for Afghanistan’s future relations with its neighbors, particularly Pakistain and Tajikistan, as well as for the region’s broader geopolitical landscape.

India-Pakistan
Pakistan reports death of senior officer and 13 TTP militants
2024-12-28
[KhaamaPress] The Pak military has announced that in separate festivities between its security forces and snuffies in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, one senior army officer and 13 members of the Tehrik-e-Taliban
...the once and current oppressors of Afghanistan...
Pakistain (TTP) were killed. Recently, the conflict between Pakistain’s security forces and the TTP has escalated in this region.

The Mighty Pak Army identified the slain senior officer as Lieutenant Colonel Muhammad Owais.

On Wednesday, the Pak military also reported that it had killed 13 snuffies in the South Wazoo region.

Earlier, the TTP had attacked a security checkpoint in South Waziristan, killing 16 Pak security personnel.

Pak officials have consistently claimed that TTP snuffies find safe havens in Afghanistan. However,
those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things...
the Afghan Taliban has denied these claims.

Meanwhile,

Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesperson for the Taliban, stated that at least 46 people were killed in the attacks, the majority of whom were women and kiddies.

The ongoing military confrontations between Pakistain’s security forces and the TTP continue to exacerbate tensions in the region. These festivities highlight the persistent security challenges that both Pakistain and Afghanistan face, particularly concerning cross-border militancy.

The allegations of civilian casualties in airstrikes underscore the need for greater efforts to minimize harm to non-combatants and to seek long-term solutions for regional stability.

TTP fighters kill 11 Pakistani Security Personnel
2024-12-28
[KhaamaPress] Sources report that fighters from the Tehrik-e-Taliban
...Arabic for students...
Pakistain (TTP) killed 11 Pak security personnel in different areas of North Wazoo.

According to reports, the TTP fighters involved in the attacks on Thursday, December 26, were from the group of Hafiz Gul Bahadur
...a member of the Madda Khel clan of the Uthmanzai Waziris. Educated in a Deobandi madrassa located in Multan, he is affiliated with the Jamaat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) political party. Upon the formation of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in December 2007, he was announced as the group's overall naib amir under Baitullah Mehsud, who was based in South Wazoo, but has largely distanced himself from the TTP due to rivalries with the Mehsuds and disagreements about the TTP's attacks against the Pak state..
The reports also added that the attacks took place in the Mirali area, specifically in the Khaiderkhel, Khadki, and other regions, with at least 16 other security personnel reported injured.

The Pak government has not yet made any statements regarding the incident.

Earlier, the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) carried out an attack on a security checkpoint in South Waziristan, killing 16 Pak security personnel.

Pak officials have consistently claimed that members of the TTP find safe haven in Afghanistan. However,
a clean conscience makes a soft pillow...
the Afghan Taliban has denied these allegations made by Pak authorities.

Meanwhile,
...back at the pond, the radioactive tadpoles grown into frogs. Really big frogs, in fact...
on Tuesday evening, Pak fighter jets bombed several locations in the Bermal district of Paktika
...which coincidentally borders North Wazoo and Kurram Agency...
province.

A Pak official told Rooters that the Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s targeted a camp of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) turbans. Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesperson for the Taliban, stated that at least 46 people were killed in the attacks, the majority of whom were women and kiddies.

The ongoing airstrikes and cross-border conflicts between Pakistain and Afghanistan continue to cause significant loss of life and highlight the growing security challenges in both countries. The fact that civilians, including women and kiddies, are often caught in the crossfire underscores the devastating impact of such military actions on non-combatants.

The increasing violence in regions like North Waziristan highlights the fragile security situation in Pakistain’s tribal areas, where turban groups like the TTP continue to operate with relative freedom. These deadly festivities not only undermine the stability of the region but also place civilians at great risk, caught in the crossfire between Death Eaters and military forces.

Death Toll Rises to 46 in Pakistan’s Airstrikes on Afghanistan, Majority Women and Children

[KhaamaPress] The Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
authorities report that a Pak Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...

...which coincidentally borders North Wazoo and Kurram Agency...
province has killed at least 46 people and injured 6 others. The attack has drawn widespread condemnation.

Hamdullah Fitrat, Deputy Spokesperson of the Taliban regime,, told Khaama Press on Wednesday, December 25, that the Pak military bombed four areas in the Barmal district of Paktika.

According to Fitrat, the airstrike killed 46 individuals, including women and kiddies, and left six others injured. The attack has been described as particularly devastating.

On Tuesday evening, December 24, the Pak Army launched an attack on "Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) bases" in the Barmal district of Paktika province. The Taliban have vowed to retaliate against this attack.

Media outlets close to the Pak Army reported that several snuffies were killed in these targeted strikes, and four operational bases of the TTP were destroyed.

The Taliban’s Ministry of Defense, however, stated that the attack targeted "Wazooi refugees," disputing the claim that the strikes were solely aimed at holy warriors.

The Ministry of Defense warned that this attack would not go unanswered. It emphasized its commitment to safeguarding Afghanistan’s territorial integrity and responding to such aggression.

UN calls for investigation into air strikes on Afghan border
2024-12-27
[NEWARAB] The UN mission to Afghanistan on Thursday called for an investigation into Pak air strikes in Afghanistan, in which the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
government said 46 people were killed, including civilians.

The United Nations
...boodling on the grand scale...
Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) said it had "received credible reports that dozens of civilians, including women and kiddies, were killed in Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s by Pakistain's military forces in Paktika

province, Afghanistan, on 24 December".

"International law obliges military forces to take necessary precautions to prevent civilian harm," the agency said in a statement, adding an "investigation is needed to ensure accountability".

The Taliban government said the 46 deceased were mainly women and kiddies, with another six maimed, mostly children.

According to news agency AFP, several maimed children were seen in a hospital in the scenic provincial capital Sharan, including one receiving an IV and another with a bandaged head.
Oh NOES!
A Pakistain security official told AFP on Wednesday the bombardment had targeted "terrorist hideouts" and killed at least 20 krazed killers, saying claims that "civilians are being harmed are baseless and misleading".

TTP leader 'killed' in Afghanistan's Kunar province
2024-06-20
He's 'dead' now.
[GEO.TV] An important leader of the outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban
...the once and current oppressors of Afghanistan...
Pakistain, Abdul Mannan alias Hakeemullah, was killed in Afghanistan's northeastern province Kunar, sources told Geo News on Wednesday.

According to the sources, the terrorist — killed in district Asadabad in Afghanistan — was a member of TTP's Malakand Shura and was involved in murder, landmine blasts in Bajaur, firing at security checkposts and extortion.

He was the right hand of TTP leader Azmatullah Mehsud, as per the sources, and played a key role in shaping terrorist operations in Bajaur.

The sources added that the terrorist had joined the TTP in 2007 and took part in several actions against security forces and innocent civilians, said sources.

Mannan's brother, Tariq alias Asad, is also related to the outlawed TTP, according to the sources.

It should be noted that TTP is the leading terrorist organization in Pakistain. Meanwhile,
...back at the shootout, Butch clutched at his leg. Son of a Breech! he exclaimed with feeling......
the hideouts of Afghan murderous Moslems are currently in Kunar, Nuristan, Paktika
...which coincidentally borders North Wazoo and Kurram Agency...
, Khost and other areas of the country.

Abdul Mannan's killing comes almost a week after law enforcement agencies conducted an intelligence-based operation (IBO) foiling the bids of TTP to set up offices in Balochistan.

According to the Counterterrorism Department (CTD), intelligence agencies also detained several dangerous terrorists, including those involving high-value and most wanted targets.

Authorities revealed that among those captured include the notorious and most wanted commander of the TTP Khawarij’s Shura.

According to the preliminary investigation by the agencies, the arrested murderous Moslems have been involved in several activities against Pakistain, alongside having linkages with domestic and international terrorists.

The CTD expected that crucial information would be obtained about the secret activities of such networks within the country, as law enforcers continue to investigate the arrested people.
