Pakistan Seals Border with Afghanistan Citing Security Reasons


Amid a tense security situation, Pakistani authorities have sealed border with Afghanistan till further orders. Pakistan is under attack by terrorists where in the last five days seven bomb blasts have rocked various cities of the country claiming dozens of lives.

The responsibility of the attacks has been claimed by terrorists residing in Afghanistan.  Most of these terrorists found safe havens in Afghanistan after Pakistan launched operation Zarb-e-Azb against them.

The news of border closure came from DG ISPR, Maj General Asif Ghafoor. “Pakistan-Afghanistan border closed with immediate effect till further orders due to security reasons”, said a tweet from General Ghafoor on ISPR’s official twitter handle.

General Ghafoor claimed that hostile powers were using Afghanistan as a launch-pad to target innocent people in Pakistan.
