Pakistan’s Khawaja Asif Warns of ‘Open War’ With Afghanistan if Istanbul Peace Talks Fail Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has issued an open warning to Afghanistan’s Taliban, stating that if the ongoing peace talks between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Istanbul fail to reach an agreement, Pakistan will declare an “open war” on Afghanistan. Khawaja Asif’s statement on an “open war” with Afghanistan comes ahead of the second round of peace talks scheduled to be held in Istanbul. In the first round of peace talks held in Qatar, both countries reached a consensus to halt confrontations along the Durand Line. It was Pakistan that provoked the conflict between the two nations. On the night of October 10, 2025, Pakistan launched an air strike on Afghanistan, claiming several lives. Following Pakistan’s midnight attack, Taliban forces retaliated with strikes on Pakistani positions along the Durand Line. Afghan forces carried out several assaults on the Pakistani army, forcing them to retreat from the battleground. After the Afghan counter-attack along the Durand Line, several Pakistani soldiers were killed. Following its confrontation with Afghanistan, Pakistan was left with no option but to seek mediation talks in Qatar. Qatar claims that both nations have finally reached a conclusion regarding the ceasefire. However, Defense Minister Khawaja Asif’s recent statement threatening “open war” between Pakistan and Afghanistan if the peace deal is not accepted appears unusual. #pakistan #pakistanafghanistan #afghanistanpakistanwar #pakafghanwar #afghanistan #khawajaasif #afghanistanpakistan #breakingnews #republictv Watch More ➡️ Videos On: https://www.youtube.com/@RepublicDefence Visit Now ➡️ Full Story On: https://www.republicworld.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Republic TV is India's no.1 English news channel since its launch.
