Drone Strikes in Afghanistan's Border Regions Prompt Taliban Protests

Pakistani drone strikes in Afghanistan's Nangarhar and Khost provinces late on Wednesday have resulted in injuries and deaths, prompting protests from the Taliban government.

In Nangarhar's Shinwar district, a house was destroyed, leaving several people, including four sons and two wives of a man named Shahsawar, injured. Fortunately, no deaths were reported in this incident.

The strike in Khost's Spera district, however, was more tragic. The home of Haji Naeem Khan was targeted, resulting in the death of three children and injuries to several others.

The Taliban government has vigorously protested these drone strikes, summoning Pakistan's ambassador in Kabul on Thursday to discuss the incidents. The Pakistani ambassador, whose name is currently unspecified in available search results, was asked to voice Pakistan's objections to the Taliban government.

In response, the Taliban government held a meeting with Pakistan's ambassador in Kabul to discuss the drone strikes. The exact cause or party responsible for the drone strikes remains unspecified in the article.

These incidents have sparked widespread protests from the Taliban government, highlighting the potential for increased tension between the two neighbouring countries. As the situation continues to develop, it is crucial for both parties to engage in constructive dialogue to ensure peace and stability in the region.
