ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, March 14, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - President Asif Ali Zardari said on Saturday the Afghan Taliban had "crossed a red line" by launching what the military called "rudimentary drones" against civilian targets in Pakistan. "Afghan Taliban launched few rudimentary drones to harass the brave people of Pakistan. The incident followed attacks by Pakistan overnight Thursday-Friday that killed four civilians in the Afghan capital, Kabul, and two reported deaths in border provinces. In a post on X, Zardari's office said he "strongly condemned the drone attacks on Pakistani civilian areas, saying the Afghan Taliban crossed a red line". The Taliban government has denied any involvement or the use of Afghan territory for militancy while Pakistan insists it does not target civilians.
