  "summary": "Pakistan has denied allegations made by the Afghan Taliban that it was involved in violence in Afghanistan's Nuristan province. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting called the claims \"frivolous, baseless and completely untrue\".\n\nAccording to the ministry, there is no evidence to support the allegations, including no identities, documents, communications, forensic evidence, or independent verification. The ministry also pointed out that a video allegedly supporting the claims appears to be a pre-planned video shoot.\n\nThe Afghan Taliban had alleged that Pakistan-backed individuals had crossed the border and were involved in the reported violence. However, Pakistan categorically rejects these claims, including allegations of recruiting or training former Afghan security personnel or facilitating Daesh or any other terrorist group operating in Afghanistan.",
