4 martyred, 25 injured in Pakistani airstrikes in Kabul

KABUL (Pajhwok): A reliable source says that four people, including women and children, were martyred and 25 others injured in Thursday night’s attack by Pakistan’s military regime in the Pul-i-Charkhi area of Kabul city.

According to the source, the strike took place Thursday night in localities 23 and 24 of the 21st police district of Kabul.

The attack also completely destroyed four houses, while several others were partially damaged.

Zabihullah Mujahid, spokesman for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA), said: “Continuing its previous aggressions and crimes, the military regime of Pakistan has once again carried out bombings in Kabul, Kandahar, Paktia, Paktika and several other areas.”

Without providing further details, he added that in some places civilian homes were targeted, resulting in the martyrdom of women and children, while in other areas empty desert locations were struck.

Mujahid wrote: “Such oppressive aggression during the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadan and on the eve of Eid shows that they adhere to no humanitarian principles or moral values.”

He added that the Islamic Emirate strongly condemns this crime and clear act of aggression and that this injustice will not go unanswered.
