'Afghanistan Will Respond at the Right Time': Taliban Vow Retaliation After Pak Air Strikes Kill 10
Pakistan denies civilian casualties in airstrikes targeting Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan hideouts amid Taliban warnings of retaliation and rising cross-border tensions.
- On November 25, 2025 the Taliban vowed to respond appropriately at the right time after Pakistani air strikes killed 10 in Paktika, Khost and Kunar provinces.
- After a suicide attack in Peshawar that killed three paramilitary personnel, Pakistan's Foreign Office said strikes targeted the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group and other Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan elements.
- Taliban accounts described the strikes occurred at around 3 a.m. targeting civilian homes in Khost and Paktika provinces, while Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry denied attacks on civilians, saying `Pakistan Army has not attacked civilians`.
- Escalation along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border has raised concerns, with the Taliban in Kabul condemning the raids as a `reckless action` and officials warning of `very bad consequences`.
- Two subsequent rounds of talks failed to resolve the dispute as Pakistan sought written guarantees on TTP activity amid the group's stepped-up attacks in recent months.
