"Pakistan and Taliban-led Afghanistan have agreed to a ceasefire after some of the worst cross-border violence in years."
"Relations have soured over Islamabad's accusation that Kabul is aiding the Pakistan Taliban in attacks against the Pakistani military a claim Kabul denies."
"With deep mistrust and armed groups still active, can the fragile peace between the two countries really hold?"
Pakistan and Taliban-led Afghanistan have agreed to a ceasefire following intense cross-border violence. Islamabad accuses Kabul of aiding the Pakistan Taliban in attacks on the Pakistani military, and Kabul denies those claims. Deep mistrust persists between the two governments. Armed groups remain active along the border and continue to pose a risk of renewed violence. The ceasefire reduces immediate hostilities but lacks robust verification and confidence-building measures. Long-term stability will require transparent investigations, border security cooperation, and mechanisms to prevent militant sanctuaries. Without such steps, the agreement remains fragile and vulnerable to flare-ups.
