Pakistan stopped fighting Afghanistan! Remember what the Great Powers of the East said a week ago? According to CCTV news client, on October 15, Pakistan announced that at the request of Afghanistan and with the consent of both sides, Pakistan and Afghanistan would temporarily cease fire for 48 hours from 18:00 that day. Afghanistan was beaten by Pakistan Railway to stop!
Pakistan has a long-standing border dispute with Afghanistan, and this mountainous area has become a hotbed of terrorist forces. Organizations such as the Pakistan Taliban and the Baluchistan Liberation Armed Forces have long been entrenched in Afghanistan, planning attacks from there and threatening Pakistan's security. Since 2025, these groups have carried out more than 200 attacks, killing more than 460 people. On October 8, 16 Pakistan soldiers were killed in an ambush in the Kuram area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province.
In response to Pakistan's previous cross-border operations, the two sides accused each other of violating their territory and the conflict escalated rapidly. This border friction is not only a concentration of both countries' grievances, but also a focused outbreak of regional security hazards. Terrorist organizations use the complex terrain and repeatedly force Pakistan to take a tough stance. While the international community calls for restraint, practical intervention is limited, leaving local uncertainty.
The conflict began in late September. The Pakistani Air Force launched airstrikes on targets in Kabul and Pakistani provinces on the evening of October 9 and destroyed several suspected Pakistani Taliban hiding places. The Pakistani side made it clear that the move was aimed at terrorist bases, rather than the regular Afghan army. But the Afghan Taliban government saw it as an invasion, killing civilians, and immediately gathered troops to counter-attack. On the morning of October 11 to 12, a massive shooting broke out on the border line.
Pakistan security forces mobilized tanks and helicopter gunships to respond, killing at least 200 militants and destroying multiple training bases and camps in Afghanistan. The Palestinian statement emphasized that the operation also cracked down on the support network of the Islamic State branch. Afghanistan suffered heavy losses, including the destruction of outposts and armored vehicles. The chain of accusations on both sides is clear: Pakistan demands that Afghanistan ensure that its territory is not used for anti-Pakistan activities, while Afghanistan accuses Pakistan of cross-border bombing. This cycle of retaliation between you and me exposes the huge differences between the two countries on counter-terrorism cooperation.
On the evening of October 14, the northwestern border was once again sharpened. Afghan militants joined forces with the Pakistani Taliban to fire on the Pakistani positions, carrying out rocket and automatic weapons intensive shots. The Pakistani military responded quickly, with snipers and artillery working together to destroy several Afghan post, a tank and a training camp. The report showed that dozens of militants were killed and the Afghan side could not withstand continuous strikes. After high-level emergency consultations, Afghanistan filed a demand for a ceasefire through diplomatic channels.
On October 15th, the Pakistani Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced its agreement to implement a 48-hour temporary ceasefire from 18:00 local. A spokesman for the Afghan government confirmed that troops had been instructed to abide by the agreement. The Pakistani side stressed that this move creates space for dialogue and seeks positive solutions. Although the ceasefire suspended the war, the border patrol remained vigilant. Trucks at Chaman and Toraham ports were shut down, soldiers retreated to their positions, and tension remained in the air. This ceasefire is not the first time. In the past, similar agreements were often short-lived, testing the sincerity of both sides.
On October 6, China's Deputy Representative to the United Nations Genghisong spoke on the elimination of international terrorism measures, pointing out the global tide of terrorist threats, and China made three proposals: oppose the anti-terrorism politicization, strengthening intelligence sharing, and fighting the roots. Genghisong called for the Balochistan Liberation Armed Forces and its subordinate Magid Brigades to be included in the sanctions list. These organizations are active in Pakistan's Balochistan Province and have repeatedly launched attacks on China's Economic Corridor projects, including the Karachi Confucius Institute bombing, causing the deaths of Chinese teachers. The United Nations report showed that the armed Islamic State, al-Qaeda organizations and other associations have produced
China’s call to the United Nations warns all parties not to embrace terrorists in the name of the country. Pakistan reiterates that Afghanistan needs to strengthen border control and cut off the armed canals. The Afghan Taliban government, despite its commitment to cooperation, but its enforcement is suspicious. In recent years, similar problems have repeatedly emerged, and a ceasefire is often a temporary remedy rather than a remedy. Regional stability is about the overall pattern of Central Asia, and the security of the Chinese-Pakistan economic corridor is directly affected. The strong response of the Pakistani military reflects the determination to maintain sovereignty, but also increases the humanitarian risk. Civilian casualties are frequently, and international aid organizations call for protection of non-combatants. During the ceasefire,
