Pakistan launches retaliatory air strikes on Afghan drone sites as cross-border tensions flare

Pakistan carried out precision aerial and drone strikes across 10 locations in Afghanistan that it stated were being used to store and launch cross-border attack drones. Islamabad launched the operation after its air defense systems detected, tracked, and neutralized incoming drones launched from Afghan territory a day prior before they could hit targets. Pakistani officials maintained the strikes strictly hit identified military sites, while Afghan Taliban authorities denied launching drones and reported strikes hit provinces like Khost and Kandahar.
