The Taliban on Sunday warned Pakistan over the recent airstrikes on the Khost and Kunar provinces of Afghanistan in which more than 40 civilians lost their lives, news agency ANI reported.

Zabiullah Mujahid, the deputy minister of information and culture said," Pakistan should not test the patience of the people of Afghanistan or else should be ready to face the aftermath."

"We are trying our best to resolve the issue through diplomatic channels and negotiations. Such acts will create tension between Pakistan and Afghanistan which will lead to conflicts that are in favour of no one," Mujahid, who is also the chief spokesperson of Taliban, said. Condemning Pakistan's recent airstrikes, Mujahid said that repetition of such moves will have dire implications, ANI quoted The Khaama Press.

On Saturday, the foreign ministry of the Taliban regime summoned Pakistan's Afghan envoy Mansoor Ahmed Khan in Kabul and asked for the prevention of such strikes in the future.
