The fifth flagship meeting between Pakistani authorities and Afghan authorities was held on Wednesday. The Pakistani side was led by Lieutenant Colonel Muhammad Changaiz while the Afghan contingent was headed by Colonel Muhammad Ali. The Afghan side apologized over the incident and stated that it had resulted from the actions of enemies of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
