WNAM MONITORING: UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi on Sunday called for a swift de-escalation of tensions following reports of clashes along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
“Nothing good can come from fresh tensions and clashes along the Afghan/Pakistani border – a fragile frontier, theatre of conflict, forced displacement and humanitarian crises for decades,” he said on US-based social media company X.
“For the sake of those impacted and of regional stability, let’s hope for rapid de-escalation,” he said.
