India Condemns Pakistan's Afghan Airstrikes as 'Direct Threat to Regional Peace'
India's Ministry of External Affairs strongly condemned Pakistan's airstrikes on Afghan territory, reiterating its 'unwavering support' for Afghanistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Pakistan claimed it was targeting militants near its border, but the Taliban government called the strikes an 'atrocity'. The UN says at least 28 civilians were killed, while the Taliban puts the death toll at 36 civilians with 160 wounded.
Why It Matters
India shares borders with both Pakistan and Afghanistan and has long-standing strategic interests in the region. A destabilised Afghanistan with Pakistani military action next door directly affects India's security calculations.
