Deadly border clashes between Afghanistan’s Taliban forces and Pakistan’s military have escalated, resulting in the deaths of at least two children and injuries to 10 others in southeastern Afghanistan.
The violence marks the third consecutive week of fighting along their shared frontier, despite international pleas for a ceasefire.
Afghan officials reported on Monday that mortar shells fired from Pakistan overnight struck villages in Afghanistan’s Khost province, injuring 10 people and destroying several homes.
