[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Mighty Pak Army chief of staff General Javed Qamar Bajwa has claimed that threats being posed to Pakistain continue to reside across the border in Afghanistan.

Gen. Bajwa made the remarks during a meeting with the tribal elders in Parachinar, days after a deadly kaboom destroyed the area, leaving scores of people dead or maimed.

He said that threat continues to reside across the border in Afghanistan with ISIS gaining strength there.

"We need to remain united, steadfast, prepared and vigilant against this threat which has an agenda of exploiting sectarian fault-line," he added.

The latest remarks by the Mighty Pak Army chief came as both Kabul and Islamabad accuse each other of remaining reckless to act against the sanctuaries being used on their respective soil for planning attacks.
