Afghanistan says Pakistan strikes Kabul and border provinces

Afghan authorities said on Friday that Pakistan had carried out new strikes on Kabul and border provinces. A Pakistani security official confirmed that Pakistan struck overnight, adding their forces targeted the Pakistani Taliban militant group (TTP).

Afghan government spokesman posted on X that Pakistani strikes also hit the southern province of Kandahar, as well as eastern provinces. Pakistan last month launched a wave of air strikes on TTP based in Afghan border as military operation. But the Taliban government had denied any involvement or the use of Afghan territory for militant group.
