Clashes on Afghanistan-Pakistan Border
Reports indicate clashes between Afghan and Pakistani forces along the Durand Line, resulting in casualties on both sides.
Background
The Durand Line, a 2,670-kilometer border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, has been a source of tension since its establishment in 1893. Afghanistan has never formally recognized the border, leading to ongoing disputes over its demarcation and control. This historical disagreement frequently results in cross-border skirmishes between the two nations' forces.
