Afghan Taliban foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi accused Pakistan on Friday (October 10) of carrying out airstrikes near its borders, calling it a \u201cmistake,\u201d as Islamabad said it was taking action against militants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eleven more Pakistani soldiers were killed on Friday in a clash with militants in the Tirah area close to the Afghan border, according to Pakistani security officials. Islamabad says militants of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan group operate from Afghanistan, a charge denied by Kabul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn the border areas, which are our remote areas, there have been some attacks. We condemn it. And we consider it a big mistake of the Pakistani government,\u201d Muttaqi told a news conference in New Delhi on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Muttaqi is on a six-day visit to the Indian capital after getting a temporary exemption on his travel ban. He held talks with his Indian counterpart Subrahmanyam Jaishankar earlier in the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
India on Friday upgraded ties with Afghanistan\u2019s Taliban administration, giving a boost to the diplomatically isolated group, by announcing it would reopen its embassy in Kabul that was shut after the Taliban seized power in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Muttaqi also told reporters that, \u201cAfghanistan will not allow military interventions or military presence of anyone,\u201d in response to US President Donald Trump\u2019s stated aim of taking over the Bagram military base near Kabul, the capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIf countries want to have relations with us, then they can come to the diplomatic mission. But we don\u2019t accept them in the military uniform,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
