A video released by an Afghan online media agency reportedly shows the destruction of a terrorist training facility following a strike in Nangarhar Province.
According to the footage verified and published by Pajhwok Afghan News, individuals identified as militants are heard admitting that the strike targeted their camp. The video reportedly shows the aftermath of the attack, with militants using abusive language against Pakistani security forces and issuing threats of retaliation.
The footage contradicts claims made by the Afghan interim administration that civilians were targeted in the operation.
Security sources maintain that the strike was directed exclusively at militant infrastructure and resulted in the neutralization of multiple terrorist operatives. No mosque, madrasa, or civilian installation was targeted, officials reiterated.
Authorities also rejected social media narratives alleging civilian casualties, describing them as part of coordinated misinformation campaigns originating from some foreign and regional accounts.
The operation was conducted using intelligence-based precision targeting against facilities associated with groups described by Pakistani authorities as terrorist formations operating from Afghan territory.
Officials said the action was taken in response to militant attacks inside Pakistan over the past two months, emphasizing that national security and civilian protection remain the highest priorities.
Pakistan has previously presented evidence to the Afghan authorities regarding the presence of militant networks inside Afghan territory and has urged effective action against such groups.
