Pakistan-Afghan border reopens days after deadly clash
Each side blamed the other for Thursday’s clashes at the Chaman-Spin Boldak crossing
A key border crossing between Pakistan and Afghanistan has reopened, officials said Sunday, days after fighting between security forces left at least three dead.
Since the Taliban returned to power last year border tensions between the neighbours have risen, with Pakistan alleging militant groups were planning attacks from Afghan soil.
The Taliban deny harbouring Pakistani militants, but are also infuriated by a fence Islamabad is erecting along their 2,700-kilometre (1,600-mile) border, drawn up in colonial times and known as the Durand Line.
“The border has reopened for all sort of activities,” a spokesman for Pakistan’s paramilitary border force told AFP.
A security source said it came after “successful talks” between Pakistani officials and the governor of Afghanistan’s Kandahar province.
