Summary
UNAMA confirmed at least 10 civilians — most of them children — were killed and 9 wounded in Pakistani airstrikes on Shultan district in Kunar and Garmser district in Helmand. Three homes were also destroyed. Pakistan said its strikes targeted militant hideouts and claimed 22 militants killed; civilian and militant casualty figures could not be independently reconciled. The strikes are the third reported round of Pakistani air attacks inside Afghanistan in 10 days.
