United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres is deeply concerned about the recent violence between Afghanistan and Pakistan, his spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric said on Monday.
According to Afghan officials, Pakistani airstrikes in eastern Afghanistan on Sunday night killed at least 36 people and injured 163 others. The attacks targeted areas in the provinces of Paktia, Paktika, and Kunar.
At a regular press briefing in New York, Dujarric said the UN chief called for an immediate end to hostilities and the protection of civilians.
"The Secretary-General is deeply concerned by the latest violence between Afghanistan and Pakistan, which resulted in civilian casualties. He calls for an immediate cessation of hostilities and the protection of civilians. The Secretary-General reiterates his call on the parties to resolve their differences through diplomacy. We continue to call on all parties to uphold their obligations under international humanitarian law and continue to stress that civilians and civilian infrastructure must be protected at all times," he said.
Dujarric noted that the attacks have also reportedly triggered displacement, with UN humanitarian teams on the ground assessing needs and preparing emergency assistance.
