Pakistan has launched air strikes in Afghanistan, killing at least nine people, including women and children, according to the Taliban. The attacks targeted three houses in the Afghan region, escalating tensions between the two neighboring countries. Islamabad claims the strikes killed 22 "terrorists" by hitting their hideouts.

The Taliban condemned the attacks, accusing Pakistan of targeting civilians. The strikes come amid heightened tensions between the two nations, with Pakistan previously accusing Afghanistan of harboring militants. The attacks have further strained relations between the two countries, which have been tense for months.

This is the latest in a series of military actions between Pakistan and Afghanistan. The conflict has seen both sides accuse each other of supporting terrorism. The strikes have drawn international attention, with concerns over civilian casualties and the potential for further escalation. The situation remains volatile as both nations continue to accuse each other of supporting terrorism.
