Pakistani Foreign Ministry: Iran and Pakistan agree to reduce escalation after air strikes
The Pakistani Foreign Ministry announced that it had agreed with its Iranian counterpart on Friday to calm tensions after mutual bombing of militant targets on the territory of the two countries this week.
A Pakistani statement regarding a call held by the foreign ministers of the two countries said that the two sides "agreed on the need to enhance cooperation at the working level and close coordination on combating terrorism and other aspects of common interest."
Pakistani Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mumtaz Zahra Baloch previously confirmed earlier on Friday that her country does not want to escalate the dispute with Iran .
Yesterday, Thursday, the Pakistani Foreign Ministry announced that the army had launched a series of military strikes targeting “terrorist nests” in the Iranian province of Sistan and Baluchestan, stressing that “Pakistan fully respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The sole goal of today’s action was to seek to achieve Pakistan’s security and the national interest that "It is of the utmost importance and cannot be touched."
This comes the day after a missile and drone attack launched by the Iranian armed forces on the bases of the Jaish al-Adl organization in Pakistani territory.
