Afghanistan International sources reported that the clashes between Taliban forces and Pakistani border guards in the Dand Wa Patan district of Paktia province continued for the fourth day in a "scattered" manner.

The reason for this conflict is said to be the construction of a checkpoint at the zero point of the border by Pakistani forces.

Pakistani border forces have constructed a new outpost at the zero point of the Durand Line in the Dand Patan district of Paktia province, which has faced opposition from the Taliban.

As per the sources, the Kharlachi crossing between Afghanistan and Pakistan has also been closed due to this conflict.

In the past four days, Taliban forces and Pakistani border guards have clashed several times.

Local sources reported from Paktia province on Monday that a conflict occurred between the forces of the two sides in the border area of Aryob Zazi district.

The Taliban canceled a visit by a Pakistani military delegation to Kandahar due to last Thursday's air and missile attacks by Pakistan on Paktika province.

A Pakistani military delegation was scheduled to travel from Rawalpindi to Kandahar on Sunday, May 12.

Security sources from Pakistan confirmed to Afghanistan International that the Taliban canceled this visit.
