The Pakistani military announced on Friday that its forces had killed 30 militants who were attempting to cross into Pakistan from neighboring Afghanistan, according to Al-Qahera News.
In a statement, the army said the armed group tried to infiltrate the border, prompting security forces to engage them in a clash. No details were provided about the identity of the militants or the specific location of the incident.
The Pakistan-Afghanistan border has long been a hotspot for militant activity, with Islamabad accusing insurgents of using Afghan territory to stage attacks inside Pakistan. Tensions remain high as both countries face security challenges posed by various extremist groups operating in the region.
