KABUL – Pakistani and Taliban border forces have agreed to a ceasefire following a consultative meeting with tribal elders on Saturday evening, according to Anwar Siddiqui, a tribal elder in Paktia.
The agreement comes after five days of intense clashes in the Zazi Aryub and Dand-e-Patan districts of Afghanistan’s eastern Paktia province.
The negotiations resulted in three key points: an immediate ceasefire, the reopening of the critical Kurram border crossing, and the formation of a 40-member committee of tribal elders from both Afghanistan and Pakistan to address future conflicts.
This resolution aims to restore peace and facilitate cooperation in the troubled border regions.
