Attackers crossed Afghan border to attack Pakistani check post.

PESHAWAR (Dunya News) – One security personnel was injured when terrorists belonging to Afghanistan’s Kunar province attacked a Pakistani checkpost located in Bajaur Agency’s Mamoond district.

Intermittent attacks on the Pakistani checkposts located in the district are being made from the past three days.

Earlier on Sunday, a Pakistani soldier was also injured when the military posts were targeted from across the Afghan border.

Pakistani authorities had sealed Torkham border crossing with Afghanistan for an indefinite period after a suicide bomb blast ripped through the shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sehwan town of Sindh province.

The Afghan embassy officials were also summoned by Pakistan and handed over a list of 76 terrorists they believe are hiding in Afghanistan.
