The Taliban government accuses Pakistan of bombing Kabul and a market in eastern Afghanistan. A blast occurred Thursday night in Kabul near key government buildings.

Fighting comes as Taliban submits proposal at peace talks in Turkiye, while Islamabad warns of ‘open war’ if deal fails.

The Afghan Taliban has accused Pakistan of violating Kabul's "sovereign territory", describing it as an "unprecedented, violent, and provocative act". The allegation comes after two loud blasts were heard in the city late on Thursday.

Afghanistan and Pakistan said they had agreed a 48-hour ceasefire on Wednesday, following days of deadly clashes between the neighbors and former allies.

Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the ongoing meeting in Turkey is aimed at making the ceasefire permanent and reliable.

Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif has warned that Islamabad could no longer maintain relations with Kabul as it had in the past. He also threatened to retaliate against any source of terrorism targeting Pakistan, PTI reported.

The interim administration in Kabul on Saturday claimed that Pakistan carried out late-night airstrikes in Afghanistan’s border province of Paktika, as officials from the two sides were set to hold talks in the Qatari capital Doha.
