India Condemns Pakistan Airstrikes on Afghanistan as “Deflection from Domestic Failures”

DID Press: Randhir Jaiswal, spokesperson for the Ministry of External Affairs (India), condemned Pakistan’s airstrikes on Afghanistan, saying they resulted in civilian casualties, including women and children, during the holy month of Ramadan.

Responding to media queries, Jaiswal said the strikes reflected yet another attempt by Islamabad to “deflect and cover up its domestic problems.”

He reaffirmed India’s support for Afghanistan’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, and independence.

The Pakistani airstrikes on Nangarhar Province and Paktika Province reportedly left dozens killed and wounded.
