Pakistan Must Stop Supporting Terrorists: Waziri
Dawlat Waziri says the international community including the United States should pressurize Pakistan to stop supporting terrorists.

AVA- Addressing a joint press conference of security agencies, the Defense Ministry spokesman Dawlat Waziri said the international community including the United States should convince Pakistan to stop supporting terrorists.

“Pakistan, very shamelessly, continues to support terrorists and continues to shell rockets on Afghanistan provinces,” Waziri said in response to a question about the recent cross-Durand Line incursions by Pakistan.

"Pakistan must stop supporting terrorists," he said.

Last week, more than ۵۰۰ missiles landed in Kunar in the eastern part of Afghanistan after being fired off from across the Durand Line, local officials said.

The missiles landed in Shultan, Dangam, Shegal and Marwa districts in Kunar province – in the east of the country, displacing dozens of families, local officials told TOLOnews.

Meanwhile, the Defense Ministry spokesman said "the enemy is losing in Afghanistan".

He said terrorists activities have increased by ۱۳ percent this year but in the meantime, insurgents suffered heavy losses this year, compared to last year.

“The movements of the enemy increased by ۱۳ percent compared with last year and their casualties increased by ۱۱ percent if compared with last year,” he added.

“Terrorists wanted to move their hideouts to Afghanistan and it was the main reason for the increasing war in the country.”

He said they call on the international community to further help Afghanistan in the fight against terrorism.

At the same event, the Interior Affairs Ministry’s spokesman Najib Danish spoke out about achievements of the Afghan National Police across the country.

“The (Ministry of Interior’s) counternarcotic department launched ۲,۰۰۰ operations against (drugs) smugglers this year and arrested ۲,۶۴۷ (suspected drugs smugglers),” he said.

He said the police force members carried out at least ۱۰۰ operations recently and that “۴۵ people, who were included in the recent insecurities were killed during Operation Danish”.
