On Monday, the Pakistani Army announced that it had killed three militants who were entering Pakistan from Afghanistan.

The incident occurred last night in the border area district of Dir in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

In a statement on Monday, the Pakistani Army called on the Afghan Taliban to prevent militants from infiltrating Pakistan from Afghanistan.

The statement stressed that Pakistan expects Afghanistan to fulfil its commitments and prevent terrorists from using Afghan soil to carry out attacks in Pakistan.

Previously, the Pakistani Army referred to an attack by forces loyal to Hafiz Gul Bahadur, commander of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, which resulted in the death of eight soldiers, stating that this group is based in Afghanistan.

The Pakistani Army has warned that it will take necessary actions against threats originating from Afghanistan.

In May, the Pakistani Army reported that it had killed 29 militants along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
