BBC reports that Kunar Provincial Hospital has confirmed civilian casualties following Pakistan’s rocket attacks on the province today.
No comments from Pakistan yet.
I’m wondering why Pakistan is warming up for a war with Afghanistan while it’s allegedly meditating to end the war on Iran!!!

Pakistani army fired mortars this afternoon at around 5 PM on rural areas and civilian homes around Asadabad, the center of Kunar province in Afghanistan.
I echo that the air strike by #Pakistan impacting a drug rehabilitation centre in #Kabul reportedly leaving scores dead and injured, must be promptly, independently and transparently investigated, those responsible held to account, and reparations made to victims and families.
I am deeply saddened by the loss of civilian lives in the recent Pakistani aerial strikes on Afghanistan. A tragedy that claimed the lives of women, children, and aspiring young cricketers who dreamed of representing their nation on the world stage.
It is absolutely immoral and barbaric to target civilian infrastructure. These unjust and unlawful actions represent a grave violation of human rights and must not go unnoticed.
In light of the precious innocent souls lost, I welcome the ACB’s decision of withdrawing from upcoming fixtures against Pakistan. I stand with our people at this difficult time, our national dignity must come before all else.
The International Human Rights Foundation (IHRF) condemns in the strongest terms the killing of members of a local Afghan cricket team in a bombardment by the Pakistani military. This attack on a civilian target constitutes a grave violation of international humanitarian law and the UN Human Rights Charter.
The tragic death of the bowler, whose talent was recently visible to the world and who was seen in a video alongside his now-fallen teammates, underscores the profound human cost of these unprovoked hostilities.
The IHRF calls upon all international humanitarian organizations and human rights bodies to urgently investigate this incident and the ongoing pattern of violence against Afghan civilians. The international community must hold the perpetrators accountable and ensure the protection of innocent lives.
