Summary

Pakistani Forces conducted multiple waves of airstrikes inside Afghanistan targeting locations in Kandahar, Khost, Paktia, Kunar, and Paktika provinces. Afghan officials reported 4 civilians killed in the latest overnight strikes (September 24), while the UN confirmed 3 Afghan civilians (a man, a woman, and a girl) killed and 4 injured in earlier strikes in Kunar and Paktika. Pakistan claimed it targeted drone launch and storage sites and described the strikes as responses to drones launched from Afghan territory. Afghanistan's de facto authorities denied launching the drones and condemned the strikes.
