Pakistan’s military has dismissed claims that it holds an agreement with the United States permitting attacks on Afghanistan from its territory.
The statement responds to allegations from Kabul that U.S. drones are operating through Pakistani airspace to conduct strikes.
Army spokesman Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry told journalists, “This allegation is false. Pakistan has not allowed the U.S. to launch attacks on Afghanistan from its soil.”
He added that Islamabad and Washington have no agreement authorising such operations.
Zabihullah Mujahid, spokesperson for Afghanistan’s interim administration, had stated in an interview that American drones were operating over Afghanistan and passing through Pakistani airspace, breaching Afghan sovereignty.
Kabul has reportedly requested Pakistan ensure its land and airspace are not used for attacks against Afghanistan.
Chaudhry also noted that 112 foreign fighters have been killed in operations over the past three to four months.
