Why did hostility arise between Afghanistan and Pakistan?
The once-close connection between afghanistan and pakistan has begun to deteriorate since the Taliban took power in that country. Since the Taliban took power, there has been an increase in extremist acts in Pakistan. The commanders of Tehreek-e-Taliban pakistan (TTP) have been instructed to launch attacks throughout Pakistan. Research published in 2021 by the pakistan Institute of Peace Studies states that the TTP carried conducted 282 attacks throughout pakistan, resulting in the deaths of at least 500 security officers. As of january 2022, the TTP has conducted 42 attacks in this year. In addition, there have been allegations in recent months of fighting between Pakistani military and Afghan Taliban on the Pakistan-Afghanistan data-border. december 2023, only a month ago, saw another attack on the Pakistani embassy in Kabul.TTP: What is it?This terrorist group has long been opposing the pakistan State and is present in the data-border regions of both pakistan and Afghanistan. The TTP demands that the army leave Pakistan's tribal regions and that the fighters held captive by the country's authorities be freed.Why is there more stress now?This occurred multiple times last year, or in 2023, when the Afghan Taliban and Pakistan's military forces clashed along the data-border. This confrontation also claimed the lives of many others. The 'Durand Line' is actually not recognized by Afghanistan. This is the boundary between pakistan and Afghanistan. And because the Taliban rejects this, protests are voiced from afghanistan whenever pakistan attempts to fortify its data-border along this line.
