WorldAfghanistan says 28 fighters killed as Islamabad and Kabul trade accusations
Afghanistan’s defence ministry said its forces killed 28 fighters in eastern Nuristan province who had crossed from Pakistan. It accused Pakistan of recruiting former Afghan security personnel and supporting ISIL fighters. Pakistan rejected the claims as baseless, denied involvement in the clashes or armed groups, and urged the Taliban to act against militants operating from Afghan territory. Tensions have grown after recent Pakistani air strikes in Afghanistan.
