“… This comes as the Afghan Taliban and Pakistan clashed at “several points” at the border, officials said, days after Pakistan aircraft carried out aerial bombing inside Afghanistan.

The airstrikes on eastern Afghanistan killed 46 people, mostly women and children, a Taliban government official had confirmed.

… Afghan authorities warned on Wednesday they would retaliate after the Pakistani bombardment, which they said had killed civilians. Islamabad said it had targeted hideouts of Islamist militants along the border. …

The Taliban on Saturday said the strikes were conducted "beyond the ‘hypothetical line", an expression used by Afghan authorities to refer to a border with Pakistan that they have long disputed, but did not mention Pakistan. …”
