Tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan surged over the weekend with the Taliban government claiming to have killed 58 Pakistani soldiers in fierce clashes at the shared border. On the other hand, Islamabad has reportedly killed 200 Taliban terrorists.

Amid rising tensions, Afghanistan and Pakistan face border clashes. Trump offers to address the conflict while recalling past peace achievements.

Afghanistan and Pakistan traded heavy fire along their shared border after Taliban forces responded to Pakistani airstrikes in Kabul amid escalating tensions.

“This will be my eighth war that I have solved, and I hear there is a war now going on between Pakistan and Afghanistan. I said, I’ll have to wait till I get back. I am doing another one. Because I am good at solving wars,” Trump said.

Pakistan, once a close ally of the Taliban, is now locked in fierce clashes along the Durand Line. Decades of proxy support have backfired, fueling TTP attacks and destabilising Pakistan’s own security.

The reversal exposes the collapse of Islamabad’s long-standing strategy of using Afghanistan as a buffer against India and highlights its growing loss of control over the very militants it once nurtured.
