Summary

Pakistani airstrikes on Kunar province killed at least three civilians — a man, a woman, and a girl — and injured four others on 22 September 2026, according to UNAMA.

حملات هوایی پاکستان در ولایت کنر افغانستان در تاریخ ۲۲ سپتامبر ۲۰۲۶ حداقل سه غیرنظامی — یک مرد، یک زن و یک دختر — را کشت و چهار نفر دیگر را زخمی کرد. سازمان ملل متحد (یوناما) این حادثه را تأیید کرده و از تمام طرف‌ها خواست تا حقوق بین‌الملل بشردوستانه را رعایت کنند. طالبان این حملات را "تجاوز" خواند. حملات همچنین ولایت پکتیکا را نیز متأثر کرده و یک خانه و یک دکان را تخریب نمود، اما تلفات جانی گزارش نشد.
