Afghanistan said 28 fighters were killed amid escalating tensions with Pakistan, according to Al Jazeera, as the two neighboring countries traded accusations over terrorism and cross-border violence.
The report did not specify further details on the circumstances of the deaths or which side carried out the operation that resulted in the reported casualties.
Relations between Kabul and Islamabad have strained repeatedly in recent years, with both governments accusing each other of harboring or failing to act against armed groups operating along their shared border.
Cross-border incidents have periodically triggered diplomatic protests and, at times, military exchanges between the two countries, complicating already fragile regional security dynamics.
Al Jazeera's report did not indicate whether either government had proposed measures to de-escalate the situation following the latest exchange of accusations.
