Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid

The Taliban in Afghanistan said on Monday that Pakistan had carried out two air strikes on Afghan territory, killing five women and three children.

The Taliban spokesman, Zabiullah Mujahid, condemned the attacks and considered them a violation of sovereignty.

The attacks have been reported as neighboring countries believe that the latest attacks in Pakistan were launched from Afghan soil.

The Taliban, who are in power in Afghanistan, have rejected these accusations.

"The Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan does not allow anyone to compromise security by exploiting the Afghan territory," said Mujahid.

The attacks left five women and three children dead in the eastern provinces of Kost and Paktika, he said.

Pakistan's military has not commented on the Afghan allegations.

Days ago there were reports of attacks by some militants in Pakistan, leaving seven security officials dead.

Although it is not yet clear what prompted the attack, Pakistan's government and security officials have said that attacks have increased in recent months and that the Pakistani Taliban have claimed responsibility for some of them, and that the attacks were launched by Afghan land.

The Afghan Taliban, on the other hand, have denied that they allow their territory to be used by militants.

"Pakistan should not blame Afghanistan for lack of control, incompetence and the problems it has in its territory", Mujahid said through the statement.

"Such incidents can have very serious consequences, which will not be in the control of Pakistan"./ REL
