In a bid to de-escalate the deadliest crisis between Afghanistan and Pakistan in recent years, delegations from both nations are en route to Doha, Qatar. The move follows over a week of intense border clashes that have resulted in dozens of fatalities and hundreds of injuries on both sides. The Taliban government confirmed that the Afghan delegation includes the defense minister and the head of the national intelligence agency, while Pakistan’s delegation departed on Saturday, as reported by the national broadcaster PTV.
