The fragile truce between Pakistan and Afghanistan has officially shattered. Following a wave of deadly midnight airstrikes by Pakistani warplanes inside Afghanistan, the two nations are on the brink of an all-out border war. What triggered this sudden escalation?
Full Description:
Tensions have exploded along the 2,600-kilometer Durand Line. Late Tuesday and early Wednesday, Pakistani warplanes launched major airstrikes across eastern Afghanistan, targeting the provinces of Khost, Kunar, and Paktika. The strikes have completely derailed a months-long, Qatar-mediated ceasefire and pushed the region into deeper chaos.
While Islamabad claims the "calibrated" operations successfully eliminated 26 militants at a training camp, the Taliban-led Afghan Ministry of Defense reports a devastating civilian toll, stating that the bombardment destroyed residential homes and left women and children dead.
