Afghanistan has rejected Pakistan’s stance that the recent suicide attacks in Pakistan was masterminded from Afghanistan soil.
According to ‘Tolo News’, the presidential palace said in a statement Afghanistan has proven its honesty in fighting terrorism and now it is Pakistan’s turn to destroy terrorist safe havens on its own soil.
Deputy spokesman of Afghan president, Shah Hussain Murtazawi said “Afghanistan has never allowed anyone to use its soil for terrorist activities against regional countries or its neighbors. We also expect other countries not to let insurgent groups harbor safe havens on their soil,”

Pakistan has closed the Torkham and Spin Boldak border ports and said the attack was masterminded in Afghanistan.
The Pakistani military also summoned the Afghan ambassador in Islamabad and submitted the names of 76 terrorists in Afghanistan and asked the Afghan government to target those elements.
In reaction to Pakistan’s allegations Murtazawi said Pakistan should, instead of making accusations, eliminate the safe havens of insurgents on its own soil.
