Pakistan and Afghanistan have traded claims of seizing each other’s border posts, as border clashes between their militaries intensify following an air strike on Kabul earlier this week.
The Taliban on Sunday said it had captured three Pakistani border posts during its retaliatory attacks at seven points along the border.
Can we have just 1 day of peace in the middle east?
Neither of these are in the Middle East (Mideast ends at Iraq; everything east of that is Central Asia), but also no.
Iraq? Do you mean iran? They are also a part of west Asia and I’m pretty sure they are in the ME. Central Asia’s a common mistake though
Also, I’m pretty sure Pakistan is considered to be in South Asia, not Central Asia.
Oh, you’re right. TIL.
Not as long as religion’s shadow hangs over
This has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with Bagram. Please.
