**Regional Tensions Ease as Pakistan and Afghanistan Agree to Ceasefire**
In a significant development, Pakistan and Afghanistan have agreed to a new ceasefire after more than a week of deadly clashes along their shared border. The agreement comes as a result of diplomatic efforts led by several countries, including Turkey.
**Turkey's Mediation Role Played a Crucial Part**
According to sources, Turkey's National Intelligence Organization (MİT) played an active role in facilitating the ceasefire agreement between Pakistan and Afghanistan. MİT's efforts helped to ease tensions between the two nations, which have been exacerbated by a surge in militant attacks and border clashes in recent months.
