On Sunday, Pakistan carried out an airstrike in eastern Afghanistan, killing 17 civilians, including 11 children, and wounding five others. The operation struck residential areas in Nangarhar province, intensifying regional tensions between the two countries. Local authorities reported that the attack hit homes and a religious school in the Behsod district. Rescue efforts have been delayed due to difficulties in removing debris. This strike is part of a series of Pakistani incursions that, since October, have killed 70 people and injured more than 400.
