8 Afghan troops killed in latest border clash

Pakistan on Sunday claimed that at least eight Afghan troops were killed in the latest round of border clashes between the two sides.

According to Report, which cites Anadolu, Pakistani troops "befittingly" responded to alleged shelling and firing by Afghan border guards, which resulted in casualties.

Pakistani sources claimed that eight Afghan troops, including two "commanders", were killed in fresh round of clashes that began when Taliban forces attempted to construct a security outpost along a porous border, which has long been a bone of contention between the two neighbors.
