Pakistan Strikes Kill Four Civilians in Afghanistan

BBC World · world

Afghanistan's Taliban government reported that Pakistani air strikes killed four civilians in the provinces of Kandahar, Paktia, and Khost. This marks the second wave of Pakistani strikes on Afghan territory in the past week, following a deadly attack on a police facility in Pakistan on September 18. The Taliban condemned the attacks as "reckless" and warned of consequences, while Pakistan stated the strikes were precise and limited to military objectives linked to attacks against Pakistan.
