At least four people, including two children, were injured after debris from Afghan Taliban drones fell in several Pakistani cities, the country’s military said on Saturday. The drones were intercepted and destroyed before reaching their intended targets, but falling fragments caused injuries in different locations.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the media wing of the Pakistani military, the drones were brought down on Friday in Quetta, Kohat and Rawalpindi, which lies close to the capital Islamabad. The military said the devices were neutralised using a combination of “soft and hard kills”, meaning electronic countermeasures as well as physical interception.
