Taliban threatens Pakistani army
He wrote on the social media platform X, "Another violation by the Pakistani army on Afghan territory has been responded to." The airstrikes carried out by the Pakistani military in Paktika, Khost, and Kunar provinces of Afghanistan last night are a direct attack on Afghanistan's sovereignty. This is a clear violation of internationally recognized norms and principles by the Pakistani authorities.

These hostile actions by the Pakistani military achieve nothing. They only prove that operations based on faulty intelligence escalate tensions and expose the ongoing failures of Pakistan's military regime. The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan strongly condemns this violation and attack.

Warning in response to airstrikes
Afghan government spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said that nine children were killed in Pakistani airstrikes in Afghanistan on Monday night.

In a post on X on Tuesday, the spokesman said, "At around 12 a.m. last night, in the Mughalgai area of ​​Khost province, Pakistani airstrikes bombed the home of a local citizen, Waliat Khan, son of Qazi Mir. Nine children (five boys and four girls) were killed as a result.

Former Afghan President Condemns Attack
In a subsequent post, a spokesperson stated that a woman was killed and her home destroyed. He added that airstrikes also occurred in Kunar and Paktika, injuring four civilians.

Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai strongly condemned the airstrikes. In a post on X, he urged Pakistan to "build relations with Afghanistan on the basis of international principles and good neighborliness, act with a long-term vision, and avoid repeating harmful and hostile policies."
