Pakistan has formally accused the Taliban regime of Afghanistan of allowing terrorist activities to launch from its territory, resulting in a devastating attack that killed 11 Pakistani soldiers this week.

The Foreign Office's demarche was issued after a suicide bomber targeted a security check post in Bajaur, leading to accusations that the Taliban's control over such entities is lacking.

Foreign Office officials reiterated their expectation for the Taliban to take definitive action against the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), which reportedly operates freely from Afghan soil despite prior assurances to rein in these groups.
