Afghanistan vows retaliation after blaming Pakistan for deadly strikes
November 26, 2025
|The Straits Times
Afghanistan’s Taliban government vowed on Nov 25 to “respond appropriately” to overnight border strikes it blamed on Pakistan, a claim Islamabad denied, as tensions soar following a suicide bombing in Peshawar a day earlier.
“The Pakistani invading forces bombed the house of a local civilian resident,” spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid posted on X.
“As a result, nine children (five boys and four girls) and one woman were martyred” in Khost province.
Air strikes targeting the border regions of Kunar and Paktika wounded another four civilians, he added.
The raids were carried out by drones and aircraft, according to Mr Mustaghfir Gurbuz, a spokesman for the governor of Khost.
“The Islamic Emirate strongly condemns this violation and reiterates that defending its airspace, territory and people is its legitimate right, and it will respond appropriately at the right time,” Mr Mujahid said.
