Zabihullah Mujahid, the official spokesperson of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, has called on the United Nations Security Council to fulfill its responsibility and take immediate action to halt Pakistan’s repeated attacks on Afghan territory.
kabul 24: In a strongly worded statement, Mujahid highlighted a series of recent Pakistani airstrikes and artillery bombardments targeting several border provinces, including Paktika, Paktia, Khost, Kunar, and Nangarhar. He described these operations as “blatant aggression” and a “clear violation of Afghanistan’s sovereignty.”
According to the spokesperson, the attacks have resulted in the deaths and injuries of numerous Afghan civilians, the destruction of homes and civilian infrastructure, and the displacement of hundreds of families.
Mujahid labeled Pakistan’s actions as “inhumane” and warned that their continuation seriously threatens peace and stability across the region.
The spokesperson also drew attention to the worsening situation of Afghan migrants in Pakistan. He stated that Pakistani authorities have intensified the forced deportation of hundreds of thousands of Afghans in recent months.
Many of these individuals—who have lived in Pakistan for years or even decades—are facing harassment, arbitrary detention, confiscation of property, and inhumane treatment.
Mujahid described these policies as part of a systematic campaign of pressure against Afghans, asserting that civilian casualties inside Afghanistan and the mistreatment of refugees in Pakistan are two sides of the same hostile approach by Islamabad.
Mujahid emphasized that the Islamic Emirate has repeatedly expressed its willingness to resolve differences through dialogue and peaceful means.
However, he accused Pakistan of rejecting negotiation and instead escalating military and political pressure. He urged the UN Security Council to convene an emergency session, exert decisive pressure on Pakistan, and issue a firm resolution to prevent further violations.
The spokesperson reminded the Council of its primary mandate to maintain international peace and security, arguing that it cannot remain silent in the face of such clear breaches of international law and human rights.
The appeal comes amid sharply rising border tensions between the two neighbors.
Recent months have seen frequent reports of Pakistani surveillance and fighter jets violating Afghan airspace, further heightening concerns. While the Islamic Emirate has reserved the right to self-defense, it has stressed its preference for resolving the crisis through diplomatic channels.In closing,
Mujahid called on the international community—particularly Muslim-majority countries—to take a clear stance and support the rights of the Afghan people.
He expressed hope that coordinated global pressure would compel Pakistan to cease military incursions and respect Afghanistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
