Tensions between Kabul
...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either....
and Islamabad intensified following a series of deadly terrorist attacks in both the countries.

Both Afghanistan and Pakistain claim that the attacks are plotted and carried by the bully boyz having safe havens in the two countries.
