<p><a href="/en/afganistan/kabul" class="glossify-link">KABUL</a>’s soil could harm relations between the two countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) said on Monday.</p>
<p>Five people were killed and injured as a result of Pakistani forces artillery shelling in Marawar District of eastern Kunar province on Monday.</p>
<p>The MoFA strongly condemned the shelling deep inside Afghan soil and expressed its concern regarding such attacks.</p>
<p>“The shelling may hamper relationship between the two countries at a time when Kabul always wished cordial ties with Pakistan,” the MoFA said in a statement.</p>
<p>It said artillery shelling was not in the interest of peace between Afghanistan and Pakistan and was against Pakistan’s commitment with Afghanistan of improving bilateral ties.</p>
