NEW DELHI: Delegations from Afghanistan and Pakistan will be sitting across the table at Istanbul on Saturday to follow up on the implementation, and other details of the Doha peace agreement held last week.

The negotiations, mediated by Qatar and Türkiye, were aimed at Afghanistan and Pakistan reaching a ceasefire agreement following days of deadly cross-border gunfire that killed, injured, and displaced civilians near the Durand Line that separates the two countries.

The negotiations at the Qatrai capital earlier reportedly lasted about 13 hours with Doha announcing an agreement early morning on October 19.
