The Afghan outlet added that neither Pakistani nor Turkish officials have offered any explanation, raising questions about whether peace negotiations between Kabul and Islamabad will continue.
Last week, Erdoğan said that a Turkish delegation would soon head to Pakistan to discuss finalizing a ceasefire agreement between the Pakistani government and the Afghan Taliban.
The third round of talks between the Taliban and Pakistan, held in Istanbul, ended without any concrete result, with both sides accusing each other of lacking a cooperative spirit.
