Two days ago Pakistani jets bombed seven locations inside Afghanistan - killing at least 28 people and wounding over 30 others. The Pakistanis said they were targetting Tehreeke Taliban Pakistan (TTP) terrorists who have been causing havoc inside Pakistan. Pakistan says in the past week, 35 Pakistani personnel have been killed by TTP attacks inside Pakistan. The TTP then escapes across the border into Afghanistan. The Afghan Taliban have promised to retaliate against Pakistan.
Pakistan launched pre-dawn airstrikes along the Afghan border, targeting suspected Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan hideouts across the Durand Line. Pakistani fighter jets, including F-16s and JF-17s, struck multiple locations in Paktika’s Barmal district and other border provinces, killing at least 28, according to reports. Islamabad claims conclusive evidence linking recent terror attacks to Afghan-based leaders. Afghan Taliban authorities accused Pakistan of violating sovereignty, warned of possible retaliation, and convened urgent meetings in Kabul and Kandahar as border tensions sharply escalated.
