Story summary
On September 21, Pakistani jet fighters conducted airstrikes in northeastern Afghanistan, reportedly targeting suspected militant hideouts. Afghan officials reported at least three civilian deaths and several injuries, while Pakistan claimed it killed 28 militants. The strikes occurred after two deadly attacks on Pakistani security forces near the border. Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid warned of a "crushing response" if Afghan territory was violated again. A second round of airstrikes by Pakistan hit southern and eastern Afghan provinces (Kandahar, Paktia, Khost) on September 24, reportedly in retaliation for drone attacks from Afghanistan the previous day, killing four more civilians according to Taliban officials.
