This Pakistani delegation traveled to Kabul at the invitation of the Taliban following Pakistan's airstrikes on two eastern provinces of Afghanistan.
About a week ago, Pakistan announced that it had targeted members of the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group, one of the leaders of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan. Pakistan also accused the Taliban of supporting terrorism and the Pakistani Taliban.
In response, the Taliban stated that they retaliated to these attacks with artillery attacks on several Pakistani military border posts. The group added that the casualties of the Pakistani airstrikes were civilians.
