Pakistan has announced the killing of 29 militants in a series of airstrikes and a ground operation along its border with Afghanistan. The Pakistani government claims these operations targeted militant hideouts, which they say were responsible for recent attacks. However, Afghan officials report that the airstrikes have also resulted in significant civilian casualties, including deaths and injuries. The Taliban government has condemned the strikes as acts of aggression, heightening tensions between the two nations as conflicting narratives emerge over the impact and objectives of the operations.
