The Afghan Taliban government reports that a Pakistani air strike on a drug rehabilitation facility in Kabul resulted in 400 deaths and 250 injuries. Pakistan denies the claim, stating it targeted military installations and terrorist infrastructure instead.
KABUL, March 17 – The deputy spokesman for Afghanistan’s Taliban government announced Tuesday that a Pakistani air strike on a drug rehabilitation center in Kabul resulted in the deaths of at least 400 people and left 250 others wounded.
Pakistani officials dismissed these allegations as inaccurate and deceptive, stating they “precisely targeted military installations and terrorist support infrastructure” during Monday evening’s operation.
The conflicting accounts highlight ongoing tensions between the neighboring countries as both sides offer dramatically different versions of what occurred during the strike on Afghanistan’s capital city.
