According to Taliban authorities, Afghan forces carried out retaliatory attacks targeting strategic military centers and installations in Pakistan. The response was described as a direct reaction to what Afghan officials called violations by Pakistani forces along the Durand Line, the long-disputed border separating the two countries.
A social media post from a handle identifying itself as Afghanistan’s Ministry of National Defense claimed that Afghan air forces launched a precision strike on Pakistani military positions in the Kohat area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The post stated that the operation was conducted in response to “night-time violations” by the Pakistani military.
