Pakistan and Afghanistan have agreed to an immediate ceasefire following days of intense border clashes that left dozens dead and hundreds injured. The truce was reached during peace talks in Doha, mediated by Qatar and supported by Turkey. Both nations pledged to establish mechanisms to prevent future escalations and address cross-border militancy and territorial disputes through dialogue. The agreement marks the first major diplomatic breakthrough since tensions flared earlier this month. Follow-up meetings are planned to ensure lasting peace and stability between the two neighboring countries long locked in conflict. (PC: AP)
