at 5:02 pm

Kabul, Nov 25 (BVI) Pakistan again carried out drone attacks inside Afghanistan, killing at least 10 civilians, including 9 children, and prompting the angry Taliban regime to vow an appropriate response at the right time for an “assault on sovereignty” of Afghanistan.

Last night,  in the Mughalgai area of Gurbuz district, Khost province, the Pakistani regime’s invading army bombed the house of a local civilian, Wilayat Khan, se?  killing 9 children (5 boys and 4 girls) and a woman, and destroying the house,  the Taliban regime’s Information Minister Zabihullah said today.

Airstrikes also took place in Kunar and Paktika, where 4 civilians were wounded, he said.

“The airstrikes carried out last night by Pakistani forces in Afghanistan’s Paktika, Khost, and Kunar provinces constitute a direct assault on Afghanistan’s sovereignty,” Zabihullah said.

He said Pakistani action was “a clear breach of internationally recognized norms and principles”.

He said, “These hostile actions by Pakistani forces achieve nothing; they only prove that operations driven by flawed intelligence inflame tensions and expose the ongoing failures of Pakistan’s military regime.’

While strongly condemning “this violation and act of aggression”, Zabihullah said “defending  Afghan airspace, territory, and citizens” is the legitimate right.”

He asserted that “A necessary response will be given at the proper time.” (BVI
