Taliban blames Pakistan for airstrikes that kill 3 people and wound 7

Pakistani drone attacks targeted residential areas in the Nangarhar and Khost regions of Afghanistan on Wednesday night, resulting in three deaths and seven injuries.
The drone strikes took place against a backdrop of heightened friction over cross-border militancy, with Islamabad alleging militants find refuge in Afghanistan, a claim Kabul has rejected.
Two drone strikes hit a house in Nangarhar's Shinwar district, injuring six family members and destroying the home, while three children died in Khost's Spera district.
The Taliban foreign ministry condemned the airspace violation and bombing of civilians, warning that "such irresponsible actions will inevitably have consequences," while summoning Pakistan's ambassador to Kabul in protest.
The incident underscores fragile Pakistan-Afghanistan relations, with recent diplomatic efforts, including a trilateral dialogue with China, failing to ease tensions or resolve security disputes.
