Pakistan on Tuesday offered Afghanistan help in eliminating suspected terrorist safe havens in its border areas.Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa, Pakistan’s army chief, said both countries would continue to suffer if terrorists using Afghan territory are not contained.The remarks came during a security meeting he chaired following a suicide attack in northeastern Lahore city on Monday, which claimed 26 lives.“Concurrent blasts at Kabul and Lahore are testimony of our stance that both Pakistan and Afghanistan are victims of terrorism and will continue to suffer if these actors are able to use Afghanistan’s territory with impunity,” Bajwa was quoted as saying by Pakistan Army’s media wing, Inter-services Public Relations (ISPR).Kabul and Islamabad have long been accusing each other of providing sanctuaries to the militants in their respective border areas.
