Fresh fighting broke out Friday night between Pakistani forces and Taliban fighters along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, reigniting fears after a fragile truce. According to Pakistani officials, the Taliban opened “unprovoked fire,” while Taliban spokespeople accused Pakistan of launching the attack near Spin Boldak in Kandahar, even using heavy artillery. Civilians were displaced, and both sides blamed each other for breaching a recent ceasefire brokered in October by Qatar and Turkey. (PC: BBC)
