Afghanistan warns Pakistan of 'crushing response' to any military strikes
Afghanistan's Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid warned Pakistan of a 'crushing response' to any military strikes on Afghan soil. He rejected Pakistan's claim that Afghan land shelters militant groups. Kabul is still open to talks and Saudi mediation. For Indian traders with any exposure to the region, this is a risk to watch, not a compliance change yet.
