Relations between Afghanistan and Pakistan have deteriorated since the Taliban regained power in 2021, leading to escalating tensions and border skirmishes. Accusations of cross-border attacks and support for militant groups such as the TTP and ISKP have fueled the conflict, despite ceasefire agreements and failed peace talks.

Pakistan denies carrying out recent air strikes in Afghanistan, further straining the already fragile relationship between the two neighbors.
