Senior officials of the interim Taliban administration in Afghanistan have reportedly relocated to the central province of Bamyan amid fears of ongoing air operations by Pakistan, Afghan media sources reported.
According to Afghan media citing local sources, members of the Taliban leadership shifted their positions to Bamyan as security pressure increased following Pakistan’s continued aerial operations targeting militant infrastructure. Reports indicate that the officials travelled to Bamyan using five helicopters, which are still stationed at Bamyan airport.
Pakistan’s military campaign, codenamed Operation Ghazab Lil Haqq, remains active inside Afghan territory against militant networks associated with Fitna al-Khwarij and other hostile elements.
According to Information Minister Attaullah Tarar, Pakistan’s retaliatory operations have so far resulted in the elimination of approximately 435 Taliban operatives, with more than 630 others injured in recent strikes. Security forces have also destroyed 118 Taliban checkpoints, capturing 31 positions.
Military infrastructure losses reportedly include the destruction of 188 tanks, armored vehicles and artillery pieces. Pakistani air operations have targeted 51 locations across Afghan territory as part of precision-based counterterrorism actions.
Security analysts say the movement of Taliban officials reflects the increasing operational pressure created by sustained aerial and ground engagements. The situation remains fluid as both sides continue to maintain heightened military readiness along the border regions.
Officials in Islamabad have reiterated that operations will continue until cross-border militant threats are neutralized and national security objectives are achieved.
The developments highlight the escalating security dynamics between Pakistan and Afghanistan, where counterterrorism operations, border control challenges and regional strategic tensions are converging into a complex confrontation landscape.
