An overnight exchange of fire at a main Pakistan-Afghanistan border crossing killed four civilians, the governor of Afghanistan’s Spin Boldak district says, in the latest flare-up of fighting between the two countries.
At the Pakistani border town of Chaman, the local hospital said three people had been discharged after suffering minor injuries during the clash, with each side accusing the other of launching an “unprovoked” attack.
