Pakistani security forces launched a full-scale retaliatory operation against the Afghan Taliban following unprovoked attacks on border posts in Kurram.

The Taliban used heavy weapons, mortars, and other arms to target Pakistani border positions, prompting an immediate and forceful response from Pakistani forces.The retaliation included strikes on Taliban border posts, mortar positions, and checkpoints using both light and heavy weaponry, including artillery.The operation resulted in the Taliban abandoning multiple posts and fleeing the area.Pakistani authorities emphasized maintaining control over border regions and readiness to counter any further aggression.

This incident is part of a broader pattern of cross-border attacks, with security forces previously foiling an attack in Ghulam Khan Sector and destroying Taliban gun positions in South Waziristan.The Pakistani government has repeatedly urged the Taliban to dismantle terrorist sanctuaries in Afghanistan, but these appeals have gone unheeded.The border situation remains volatile, with ongoing monitoring and preparedness for immediate action against any provocation.
