US military warns of ‘responses’ if Taliban violence continues“We believe that the pursuit of sustained reduction in violence by all parties concerned is pivotal in advancing the cause of peace in Afghanistan. She said that Pakistan also wishes to underline the importance of political reconciliation among all Afghan parties and stakeholders. The development comes amid a sharp surge of violence in the war-torn country despite a historic deal between the Taliban and the US back in February. The Taliban have mounted more than 4,500 attacks since signing the deal with the United States, according to data seen by Reuters. The provinces hardest hit are ones with the most Covid-19 infections, which are spreading rapidly across the country.
