  • Pakistan's airstrikes on eastern Afghanistan killed 46 people, mostly women and children, a Taliban government official said Wednesday. Hamdullah Fitrat, the deputy spokesman for the Taliban, said that six people were also wounded in the Paktika province bordering Pakistan.

The article reports that Pakistani airstrikes in the eastern provinces of Afghanistan resulted in the deaths of 46 people, according to the Taliban. These strikes targeted the border regions of Khost and Paktika, with the Taliban claiming that the victims were mostly women and children. The Pakistani military conducted these operations in response to recent militant attacks within Pakistan, which they attribute to groups based in Afghanistan. The Afghan Taliban condemned the strikes as an aggression against Afghan sovereignty, escalating tensions between the two nations. The Pakistani government has not officially commented on the specifics of the casualties but justified the military action as necessary for national security. This incident has raised concerns about potential further conflict and the stability of the region.
