, while commenting on the Afghanistan border attack issue, said "firing on Pakistain was the initiative of Afghanistan that necessitated to be retaliated."

The foreign affairs adviser maintained that that Pakistain has always used the diplomatic channels to resolve issues with its neighbours. "Afghanistan has been asked to use diplomatic channels instead of bullets," he added.

"I feel sorry for what happened in Chaman," said Aziz.

Commenting on the statement made by Afghanistan's top envoy to Pakistain Omar Zakhilwal on Monday, where he rejected claims that Pak security forces had killed 50 Afghan soldiers in retaliation to the Chaman cross-border attack, Aziz said, "It is great if the Afghans suffered less damage, as claimed by the Afghan ambassador."

Earlier, the head of the Iranian armed forces had warned Islamabad that Tehran would hit bases inside Pakistain if the government does not confront bandidos snuffies who carry out cross-border attacks.

Commenting on this, Aziz said that the government has "asked Iran to provide information regarding terrorists".
