The information ministry of Pakistan on Sunday denied Afghanistan’s Taliban government accusations that Pakistani forces were involved in recent clashes in Nuristan province, calling these claims “frivolous” and “baseless.” The ministry stated there is no evidence supporting allegations that Pakistan has recruited former Afghan security personnel or facilitated terrorist groups operating within Afghanistan. It urged the Afghan Taliban regime to address internal security challenges rather than making unfounded accusations against other nations.

Story summary
Pakistani forces launched airstrikes and engaged in border clashes with Afghan Taliban fighters, resulting in the deaths of at least 13 Taliban personnel, according to Pakistan's information ministry. This follows Pakistani claims that drones launched from Afghanistan violated its airspace on September 24, prompting retaliatory strikes in Afghan territory. The Afghan government denies these actions and accuses Pakistan of state involvement in an armed incursion near Nuristan province, where it says its forces killed 28 fighters and wounded 32. Both sides have accused each other of harboring terrorist groups that attack their territories, with tensions escalating along the Pakistan-Afghan border in Balochistan.

“The allegations by the Afghan Taliban regime linking Pakistan with the alleged violence in Nuristan are frivolous, baseless and devoid of any truth,” the information ministry’s “fact-check” account on X said.

It added: “Pakistan categorically rejects the fabricated claims of involvement by its security forces or intelligence agencies in any internal clashes in Nuristan or elsewhere in Afghanistan, including allegations of recruiting or training former Afghan security personnel or facilitating Daesh or any other terrorist group operating in Afghanistan.”

The ministry pointed out that “not a shred of evidence has been produced to substantiate Pakistan’s involvement; no identities, documents, communications, forensic evidence or independent verification”.

It further noted that an alleged video “being peddled on social media to support this false claim only shows a few unarmed individuals who are not even properly dressed or equipped were arrested in what seems to be a pre-planned video shoot by Afghan Taliban regime, well known for lies and fabricated claims”.

“Instead of externalising responsibility for its internal security challenges through fanciful allegations, the Afghan Taliban regime should take credible and verifiable action against terrorist organisations operating from its territory and fulfil its commitments that Afghan soil will not be used for terrorism against Pakistan or any other country.”

The statement further said it was “particularly ironic for the Afghan Taliban regime to accuse Pakistan of supporting terrorism while terrorist organisations operating from Afghanistan continue to pose a direct threat to Pakistan and regional security”.

The ministry highlighted that the presence and activities of “terrorist groups of all types inside Afghanistan are well documented”, including in successive reports of the United Nations and other neutral international organisations.
“Attempts to manufacture a Pakistani connection cannot obscure the reality that these terrorist groups continue to find sanctuary and [a] permissive environment for growth in Afghan territory,” it asserted.

“Such claims by this non-inclusive, non-representative Taliban regime are also reflective of lies to externalise internal dissent and oppression of women, children and minorities,” the ministry said.
