Pakistan condemned in the strongest terms the terrorist attack carried out by Khawarij, belonging to the Gul Bahadur group, against a Pakistani military camp in North Waziristan, which resulted in the martyrdom of four soldiers, the Ministry of External Affairs said.
“To convey our firm management, the deputy head of the Afghan mission was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,” he added.
The ministry conveyed Pakistan’s grave concern over the continued support and facilitation provided by the Afghan Taliban regime to the FAK/TTP, allowing them to carry out terrorist attacks against Pakistani military and civilians along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border and in adjoining areas.
It was highlighted that the permissive environment enjoyed by the FAK/TTP in Afghanistan contradicts Afghanistan’s international commitments and to Pakistan, which would not allow its soil to be used against any other country, including Pakistan.

Pakistan has demanded a thorough investigation and decisive action against the perpetrators and facilitators of the terrorist attacks launched against Pakistan from Afghan soil. The Afghan Taliban regime has been urged to take immediate, concrete and verifiable measures against all terrorist groups operating from its territory, including their leaders.
The Afghan Taliban regime has also been categorically informed that Pakistan reserves the right to defend its sovereignty and protect its citizens, and will take all necessary measures to respond to terrorism originating from Afghan soil.
