The Afghan Taliban regime is peddling yet another falsehood by alleging that Pakistan targeted a drug rehabilitation hospital in Kabul. Pakistan, in its ongoing war against terrorism, is engaging only those military and terrorist targets, along with the infrastructure of the Afghan Taliban regime, that are being directly or indirectly used to plan, facilitate, shelter, train, or abet terrorist attacks inside Pakistan. The strikes carried out on the night of 16 March 2026 in Kabul and Nangarhar were precise, deliberate, and professional. The real issue remains unchanged: Pakistan, the region, and the wider world continue to face the grave threat of terrorism emanating from territory under the control of the Afghan Taliban regime. That threat has become even more barbaric, with drug addicts and innocent children being exploited for heinous purposes, including suicide bombings.
