KABUL, Afghanistan: July 15
(PNS) – Border tensions
between Afghanistan and
Pakistan showed no sign of
easing down as troops of
the two neighbors continued
exchange of fire across the
border, a military
commander in eastern
Afghanistan said.

Abdul Zahir, commander of
Afghan border troops in the eastern border
province of Nangarhar, said that armed clashes
between the two sides lasted for about one hour
near a border post in Yegobi district of the
province, about 150 kilometers from Kabul.

Clashes across the Afghan-Pakistan border in
recent weeks sent bilateral relations to a
multi-year low last week when thousands of
Afghans took to the street in Kabul, protesting
against the alleged border incursions by Pakistan
troops.
