Afghan - Pakistan Border Clashes Continue

Second Afghan-Pakistan Border Clash In A Week -- BBC

Afghan and Pakistani troops have clashed across the border between the two countries for the second time in a week.

There are no reports of serious casualties in the latest clashes.

One Afghan border police guard was killed and two Pakistani troops injured in violence on Wednesday.

The renewed fighting comes after Afghan President Hamid Karzai said his government would never recognise the current border with Pakistan.

Afghan grievances over the frontier with Pakistan date back to its being drawn as the so-called Durand Line by the then colonial power Britain in 1893, the BBC's David Loyn reports from Kabul.

The governor of the Afghan province of Nangarhar said that several Pakistani border checkpoints were torn down just south of the Khyber Pass.
