Residents of Paktia protest in support of Hamdullah Mohib

They also asked Islamabad to stop supporting anti-Afghan terrorist groups.

Former Ambassador and Canadian Cabinet Minister Chris Alexander tweeted: " Residents of Paktia staged a peaceful protest, calling on neighboring Pakistan to stop supporting anti-Afghan militant groups. The protesters also supported remarks made by National Security Council adviser Hamdullah Mohib about Pakistan's two-faced politics."

He also shared a video of the event.

Pakistan’s top diplomat recently said that his ministry had severed ties with Afghanistan’s national security adviser Hamdullah Mohib over his recent “brothel” comment.

Pakistan foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi made the disclosure a week after a highly placed Pakistani official told VOA that Islamabad had conveyed to Kabul “through informal channels” it would no longer conduct official engagements with Mohib.

Triggering diplomatic row, Mohib often accuses Pakistan, particularly its military, of supporting the Taliban insurgency in his country, charges Islamabad rejects.

Mohib compared the neighboring country to a “brothel” while addressing a public gathering along the Pakistani border in eastern Nangarhar province.

“My blood has been boiling ever since you compared Pakistan to a brothel house. You should be ashamed of yourself and must reform your conduct,” Qureshi said of Mohib in speaking to reporters Saturday in his native eastern city of Multan.

“As a foreign minister of Pakistan, I tell you that no Pakistani will talk to you or shake hands with you until you stop foul-mouthing Pakistan,” he was quoted as saying by VOA.
