Airstrike in Eastern Afghanistan Claims Lives of Children
Zabihullah Mujahid, the Afghan Taliban's spokesperson, stated that Pakistan allegedly targeted a civilian residence in the Gorbuz district of Khost province last night.
The attack reportedly resulted in the deaths of nine children, comprising five boys and four girls.
"Air strikes also occurred in Kunar and Paktika, where four civilians were injured," Mujahid noted on the US social media platform X.
Pakistani officials have yet to provide an immediate response to these allegations.
This reported strike comes during a fragile pause in hostilities, alongside ongoing diplomatic efforts to mediate tensions between the neighboring countries.
