Pakistan and Iran “agreed to de-escalate” tensions Friday, Islamabad said, after trading deadly airstrikes on militant targets in each other’s territory this week.
The rare military actions in the porous border region of Baluchistan -- split between the two nations -- had stoked regional tensions already enflamed by the Israel-Hamas war.
On January 16, Iran struck two Jaish al-Zolm headquarters in Pakistan with missiles and drones. The Pakistani foreign ministry condemned the strike as a violation of the country’s airspace, which could result in serious consequences.
On January 18, the Pakistani foreign ministry said that in the course of an anti-terrorist operation the country’s armed forces had delivered strikes on extremists’ shelters in Iran’s Sistan and Baluchestan province. According to local authorities, nine people, including four children, were killed.
