As reported by Afghan state television on its Twitter page, the Deputy Press Secretary of Afghanistan Bilal Karimi stated:
“The claim by the President of Tajikistan regarding the existence of camps established in border areas for destructive activities on the border with Tajikistan is not true, and we categorically deny it.”
During his speech at the CSTO session, Emomali Rahmon expressed concern that “the situation on the Tajik-Afghan border is worsening every day. Fighting is taking place right along the border among the Taliban themselves, with several injured.”
Rahmon also stated that “the number of camps and centers for training terrorists bordering the southern borders of the CSTO in the northeastern provinces of Afghanistan exceeds 40, and their total number exceeds six thousand militants” and requested assistance from CSTO countries to strengthen the Tajik-Afghan border.
