Pakistani strikes on Asadabad killed at least seven people and wounded more than 80, hitting a university and residential neighborhoods in Kunar province. Calling the attacks 'unforgivable war crimes' is not hyperbole — mortars and missiles striking a campus full of students and professors is indefensible. The fragile ceasefire is now on the brink, and diplomatic talks in Urumqi produced nothing binding to stop this cycle of violence.
Afghan media's claim that Pakistan struck Sayed Jamaluddin Afghani University is a blatant fabrication designed to manufacture sympathy and distract from the Afghan Taliban's documented support for the TTP. Pakistan's operations under Operation Ghazab lil-Haq are precise and intelligence-based, targeting terror infrastructure — not civilians. Spreading fake news to shield terrorist sanctuaries is a transparent tactic that serves no one except those enabling cross-border attacks on Pakistani soil.
