Taliban Launches Attacks on Pakistan After Airstrikes

In response to recent Pakistani airstrikes that killed at least 46 people in Afghanistan, including women and children, the Taliban launched retaliatory attacks on several points in Pakistan, referred to as being beyond the 'hypothetical line'. This term denotes the disputed Durand Line, which Afghanistan does not recognize as its border with Pakistan. Taliban spokesman Enayatullah Khowarazmi stated that the strikes targeted hideouts of individuals responsible for organizing attacks in Afghanistan. The Pakistani military has conducted airstrikes targeting suspected militant camps, emphasizing its operations are based on accurate intelligence to protect its citizens. Both nations have a history of strained relations, with accusations exchanged regarding cross-border militant activities. The situation remains tense as both sides appear to be preparing for further escalations.
