Islamabad
Pakistan on Wednesday slammed the Afghan Taliban’s “latest fabrication of lies” following recent border clashes with the Afghan Taliban along the South Waziristan border, stressing that such lies carried no value and were designed to delude the suffering Afghan population.
The Pakistan Army on Tuesday night destroyed Afghan Taliban check posts after they targeted civilian areas in South Waziristan’s Angoor Adda along the border, injuring five members of a family and killing one member. In a fact check posted on X, the information ministry stated that the Afghan Taliban regime’s latest “fabrication of lies” on the Angoor Adda border incident again confirmed their “deceitful character”.
“Fact of the matter is that their cowardly forces initiated unprovoked fire and mortar shelling on unarmed civilians on Pakistani side, following pattern and instructions of their proxy masters, India,” the ministry added.
The fact check noted that “immediate, effective and disproportionate response by our brave and proud security forces not only silenced their guns but inflicted heavy casualties on their men in addition to material losses including destruction of seven posts”.
The ministry further stated that such lies of the Taliban regime’s so-called official spokespersons carried no value and were part of a “litany of fabricated stories” that they keep on telling, mostly to their own people suffering under their imposed and non-representative regime.
