A statement issued by the Taliban-controlled Ministry of Foreign Affairs—without any photographic evidence or documentation—claims that the Pakistani ambassador in Afghanistan was summoned over last night’s drone strikes.
The statement provides no details about the summoning: who summoned the ambassador, what was said, or any supporting evidence. It remains a claim without visual or documentary proof.
In the same statement, the Taliban acknowledged that the drone attack was carried out by the Pakistani military on Afghanistan’s Nangarhar and Khost provinces, resulting in the deaths of three civilians and injuries to seven others.
It’s worth noting that since the Taliban’s return to power, Pakistan has repeatedly conducted drone strikes inside Afghanistan, killing innocent civilians. However, the Taliban have consistently remained silent and have not shown any reaction to these incidents.
