Following a border clash in the Hirmand region, a meeting was held on Sunday between the representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran and
forces in Afghanistan, instructed them to avoid clashes, and included on the agenda the formation of a joint committee to avoid the
Taliban forces crossed the borders and the Iranian border guards responded as necessary, and then the Taliban responded, but there were no
casualties, according to Al Alam.A security official in Nimroz province told Fars News Agency that the Taliban forces were patrolling in an
clash, the security source explained that the Iranian border guards announced that the area in which the Taliban carried out their patrol is
part of Iran's territory, and the Taliban forces had no right to enter it.Iran's Deputy Interior Minister for Security Affairs Seyed Majid
Mir-Ahmadi spoke about the details of the clashes that erupted at noon on Sunday in the border region of Hirmand in the southeastern
border standards.He explained that the reports received on Saturday indicated that a small number of Afghan border forces took provocative
moves in the Zahak area, ignoring the accepted geographical and border standards.The deputy interior minister added that the Iranian border
guards were able to contain this situation and prevent further tension, thus ending the clashes that occurred on Sunday.Mir-Ahmadi expressed
regret for the repeated provocative moves by the Afghan border forces in the same area and even shot at the Iranian border guards there,
for an hour, this development was brought under control and the situation was contained by the border forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran
events seem to be caused by the lack of proper attention and knowledge of the Afghan border guards about the common border lines and the
security wall to deal with traffickers and drug trafficking
In some of these areas, it seems that the Afghan border guards are not aware of the border situation and do not have accurate knowledge of
border areas and lines
monitor the border movements along the borders of the region
We expect the authorities of Afghanistan to train their border guard forces more carefully
