Taliban attacks Afghanistan in a horrific manner
The Pakistani army officer said, ‘I was sent to fight in Kashmir, then to Peshawar, and then from there to Parachinar where I was assigned to an army base. At this point, the Taliban tried to take part in the attack’. Officials from the Pakistani army told Akhtar that there were Pakistani soldiers fighting against the Taliban on the other side of the border. For many years, Pakistan has been helping the Taliban.
The soldier’s arrest comes at a time when Taliban were carrying out horrific attacks against Afghanis. Afghanistan’s main border with Tajikistan has been captured by the Taliban. Security forces have abandoned their posts and some have fled across the border, according to officials. In Afghanistan, Sheer Khan Bandar is located about 50 kilometers north of Kunduz and is the first major area to have been taken over by the Taliban since US forces left.
