Pakistan Security forces have launched an operation along Pak-Afghan border to secure volatile areas and restrict terrorists’ infiltration.
According to a press release by Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) “An operation has been launched along Pak-Afghan border to reinforce troops deployment in Rajgal valley to effectively check and guard against terrorists movement along high mountains and all weather passes in Khyber Agency,”
Pakistan has completed the construction of a gate complex at Afghan border in Torkham.
It should be noted that infiltration of the terrorists through the border areas have been a point of concern for both Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The two countries in the past have blamed each other over terrorist incidents which have taken place in result of the infiltration of terrorist groups.
The busy Pak-Afghan Torkham border was closed for six days in June this year as deadly clashes took places between the border forces of the two countries.
A Pakistani official and three Afghan police officers had lost their lives in the exchange of fire between the border forces of the two countries.
