Pakistan’s Defense Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif, wrote on his X (formerly Twitter) account that the government and people of Pakistan have provided refuge and safe living conditions to Afghan asylum seekers. However, he claimed that in return, these individuals are involved in terrorist activities within Pakistan.
Asif further alleged that the Afghan Taliban support armed terrorists and send them into Pakistani territory to carry out attacks.
He stated that Afghan nationals in Pakistan have secure homes, property, and livelihoods, but accused some of them of backing terrorists and contributing to instability in the country.
It’s worth noting that Pakistan has repeatedly accused the ruling Taliban in Afghanistan of supporting militants and sending them across the border. The Taliban have consistently denied these claims, asserting that Afghan soil poses no threat to any country.
