Pakistan Airstrike Kills Hundreds at Kabul Hospital
Afghanistan has accused Pakistan of carrying out airstrikes on a drug rehabilitation centre in Kabul, with the death toll ranging from 200 to 400 depending on the source — making it one of the deadliest single strikes in the country in years. Pakistan denies targeting any civilian site, claiming its strikes hit military installations in eastern Afghanistan. The attack marks a sharp escalation in a cross-border conflict that only began last month.
