Over the past hour, the Pakistani military has maintained ambiguity regarding alleged strikes in Afghanistan, a development that occurred while Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi remains in India for diplomatic talks. A press conference by the Director-General of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), [@OfficialDGISPR](https://twitter.com/OfficialDGISPR), was described as a "biggest disappointment" by analyst [@Natsecjeff](https://twitter.com/Natsecjeff) on X.com, amid speculation about future events and ongoing diplomatic engagements. The Pakistani military's lack of clarity on the strikes comes as Afghan Foreign Minister Muttaqi continues his visit to India, where he met with Indian External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar on October 10th, 2025, to discuss mining opportunities. The analyst [@Natsecjeff](https://twitter.com/Natsecjeff) suggested that the press conference "helps set the tone for future events" and alluded to a potential "second front" being "real," indicating a perceived escalation of regional tensions. This period of military ambiguity follows earlier reports from October 10th, 2025, detailing an attack on the Haider Kandao military post in Tirah, Khyber District, which killed at least 11 soldiers, and an airstrike in Magha Bazar, Bermal, Paktika, that destroyed eight shops. The Pakistani military was scheduled to hold a press conference on Friday, October 10th, 2025, related to these events. Afghan Foreign Minister Muttaqi had previously stated during his meeting with Indian External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar in New Delhi that Afghanistan would not allow its territory to be used against others. This statement was made in the context of regional security concerns and diplomatic engagements between the two nations.
