Local sources report that Pakistani military forces have targeted parts of Asadabad, the capital of Kunar province, with continuous rocket attacks. While these strikes have been ongoing, no official casualty figures have been released yet. The Taliban government has also remained silent on the recent border tensions and military actions.
Meanwhile, the United Nations has expressed deep concern over the destruction of civilian infrastructure. A UN spokesperson confirmed that recent cross-border shelling has damaged a school, a hospital, and a telecommunications tower in the Dangam district, causing severe anxiety among the local population.
Despite recent negotiations in Urumqi aimed at reducing tensions, the talks failed to establish a ceasefire. Previous diplomatic efforts in Doha and Istanbul had only managed to secure temporary truces between the two sides.
