Kabul:<\/strong> Tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan have intensified after Mohammed Yaqoob Majahid<\/strong> , the Defence Minister of the Taliban-led government, issued a sharp warning to Islamabad, saying that instability in Kabul would also destabilize Pakistan. His remarks come amid growing military tensions and clashes along the Afghanistan\u2013Pakistan border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid, the son of former Taliban founder Mulla Omar<\/strong>, warned that continued confrontation and interference could push the region toward a dangerous conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speaking at a public event in Kabul, Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf Kabul collapses, Islamabad will not remain safe either. Stability in Afghanistan and Pakistan is interconnected.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n He emphasized that regional security depends on cooperation rather than confrontation and warned against escalating tensions along the border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to reports from Al Jazeera<\/strong> and Reuters<\/strong> , the Taliban leadership has increasingly accused Pakistan of violating Afghan sovereignty through airstrikes and cross-border military operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The latest remarks come amid repeated clashes near the Durand Line<\/strong>, the disputed border separating Afghanistan and Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Officials from the Taliban administration say Pakistani forces have carried out operations targeting militant hideouts inside Afghan territory. Islamabad, however, claims these actions are aimed at stopping attacks by militants linked to the (TTP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pakistan has accused the Afghan Taliban government of allowing Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan( TTP )<\/strong>fighters to operate from Afghan soil\u2014an allegation Kabul denies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Security analysts say the situation has become increasingly fragile in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A regional security expert quoted by Al Jazeera <\/strong>said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cRelations between the Taliban government and Pakistan have deteriorated sharply, mainly because of the TTP issue and border disputes.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n The long-standing disagreement over the Durand Line<\/strong> remains a major source of friction. Afghanistan has historically refused to formally recognize the border drawn during British colonial rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Officials in Islamabad say Pakistan faces a serious threat from cross-border militant attacks and expects the Taliban government to take action against groups targeting Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Pakistani security official told Reuters<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPakistan cannot tolerate militant sanctuaries across the border. We expect concrete action from Kabul.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n The worsening situation has raised concerns among regional powers and international observers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Experts warn that a major conflict between Afghanistan and Pakistan could destabilize the wider region, affecting trade routes, refugee flows, and security dynamics across South and Central Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While both governments have publicly said they want to avoid a full-scale conflict, the escalating rhetoric and repeated border incidents have increased fears of a larger confrontation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Observers say diplomatic engagement will be crucial to prevent tensions from turning into open hostilities along one of the most volatile borders in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kabul: Tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan have intensified after Mohammed Yaqoob Majahid , the Defence Minister of the Taliban-led government, issued a sharp warning to Islamabad, saying that instability in Kabul would also destabilize Pakistan.
