Pakistan Kills Four in Airstrikes on Ten Targets Inside Afghanistan

Pakistan launched airstrikes against ten locations inside Afghanistan overnight Wednesday into Thursday, using fighter jets and drones. According to Pakistani authorities, the targeted sites were being used to store military-grade drones. Four people were killed in the attacks. The strikes mark a significant escalation in cross-border tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan, which have been strained over militant activity along their shared border. Pakistan has previously accused Afghanistan's Taliban-led government of harboring militant groups responsible for attacks on Pakistani soil. The Taliban government has not yet issued an official response, though Afghan officials have in the past condemned Pakistani military incursions as violations of sovereignty. The incident is being closely watched by regional observers as a potential flashpoint for broader instability.
