Afghanistan said on Friday it carried out drone strikes on Pakistani military establishments as fighting between the two neighbours continued. Pakistan, meanwhile, said it shot down the drones using its anti-drone systems and reported no casualties.
Afghanistan's military launched attacks late Thursday along the border in six provinces. It described the action as retaliation for Pakistani airstrikes under 'Operation Ghazab Lil Haq' carried out on Sunday in Afghan border areas which Islamabad said was due to the "irrefutable evidence" that militants in Afghanistan were behind a recent wave of attacks and suicide bombings in Pakistan.
