Pakistan's government has bombed the capital of Afghanistan, Kabul, among others, and Pakistan's defense minister, Jawaya Asif, has called the war with Afghanistan "open."
"Pakistan's counter-attacks on Afghan targets continue. 133 Afghan Talibanhave been killed and more than 200 injured. We believe there have been many more attacks on military targets in Kabul, Paktia and Kandahar, "Pakistani Information Minister Ataula Tarar said in a social media report.
Tarar has indicated that Pakistani forces have destroyed "more than 80 tanks, artillery pieces and armoured vehicles", as well as 27 Taliban posts.
Despite data provided by the Pakistani Government, Afghan Government spokesman Zabihula Muyahid has claimed on social media that "no one has been injured," but that "thecowardly Pakistani army has bombed some areas of Kabul, Kandahar and Paktia. "
Likewise, Pakistan's Defense Minister, Jawaya Asif, has accused the Taliban of becoming "allies of India," despite the fact that "Pakistan's conduct towards the Afghans has been good." "Even today, millions of Afghans are making a living on our territory."
"Our patience has run out. Now we're going to have an open war with you, "he proclaimed in a web post." Today, when the Taliban tried to attack Pakistan, our forces are giving a decisive response, "he added.
The Afghan Ministry of Defence has issued a statement stating that "heavy bombings have been carried out east and south-east of the border, near the provinces of Paktika, Paktia, Khost, Nangarhar, Kunar and Nuristan".
In these attacks, "55 Pakistani soldiers have been killed and two bases and 19 posts in Pakistan have been deactivated, "according to the Afghan Ministry of Defence.
The open war comes at a time of great tension between the two countries . On Monday, Kabul denouncedto the UN Security Council Pakistan's bombing of the country over the weekend. In these attacks, which killed more than 10 civilians, Kabul claimed that they were targeted by the "terrorist camps and hideouts" of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) armed group and the jihadist Islamic State group, and that this was an operation in response to recent suicide attacks on Pakistani soil.
