The two Pakistan military officials met their Afghan counterparts across the border during their visit.
Both sides discussed “matters related to border security coordination and ways and means to further enhance the existing mechanism”.
“These visits are aimed at enhancing the ongoing Pak-Afghan cooperation and will help boost confidence between the armies of the two countries,” the ISPR said after the visits.
