Mawlawi Abdul Ghafoor Haidari, a senior Taliban figure, has declared that the group was created for war and jihad, which he says is not yet over.
He urged Taliban forces to remain combat-ready for a potential conflict with Pakistan.
Haidari emphasized that the fighting spirit within their ranks remains high.
His comments come as a direct response to recent sharp criticism from Pakistan’s military spokesman, who questioned the legitimacy of the Afghan government.
Tensions between the two neighbors are escalating rapidly.
With rhetoric intensifying, Taliban leadership is signaling its military preparedness to face any scenario arising from the deteriorating relationship with Islamabad.
