Pakistani armed forces conducted precision strikes on military installations and terrorist support infrastructure in Kabul, Afghanistan, as well as across the border in Kurram and Bajaur sectors. The strikes were carried out on Monday night, targeting Afghan Taliban and Fitna al-Khawarij positions.

The information ministry in Islamabad confirmed that the military targeted locations in the Afghan capital and Nangarhar province. However, it rejected claims by the Kabul regime that the strikes hit a drug treatment center, killing civilians.

Video footage reportedly showed tall flames resulting from secondary detonations after the airstrikes, confirming that a large stockpile of explosives had been targeted at two locations in Kabul. In Nangarhar, Pakistani forces successfully struck four Taliban military facilities and adjacent logistical areas, ammunition depots, and technical infrastructure.

The sources dismissed as “ridiculous” a statement by Afghan Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid claiming that a drug hospital was targeted in Kabul. The sources stressed that such operations under the Ghazab Lil Haq campaign would continue until all objectives are achieved.

Earlier, security sources reported that the army carried out operations in the Kurram sector, striking key hideouts used by Afghan Taliban operatives and Fitna al-Khawarij. This action resulted in the destruction of multiple Taliban posts, killing several Khwarij and forcing others to flee the area.

In a separate development, Pakistani forces conducted retaliatory actions in the Bajaur sector along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. The operation led to the destruction of several Taliban positions in the Bajaur sector, with security sources adding that the army also targeted posts with guided missiles during the operation.
