WASHINGTON ? A top U.S. general in Afghanistan says cross-border radio communications with Pakistan's military are finally beginning to improve after they collapsed following the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in May.
U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Curtis Scaparrotti, who directs day-to-day military operations in Afghanistan, says communications with Pakistan still aren't up to what the U.S. would like to have. Scaparrotti says military leaders have been meeting with the Pakistanis to try to make improvements.
He also says Pakistani troops had looked the other way when insurgents fired across the border at U.S. and Afghan troops. But after recent talks with Pakistani leaders, he says that has begun to change. He says Pakistani troops have started returning fire at insurgents in the last month.
