Meanwhile, in a statement issued by Pakistan, it was said that in the ongoing military operation with Afghanistan, the Pakistani Army has killed 415 Afghan Taliban fighters and injured more than 580. This information was given by Pakistan’s Information and Broadcasting Minister Attaullah Tarar on Sunday. Let us tell you that this conflict between the two countries became more intense when Pakistan started a military operation named ‘Gajab Lil Haq’ on Thursday night.
Pakistan says that this action has been taken in response to the attacks by Afghan Taliban. According to Pakistani officials, Afghan Taliban fighters had attacked 53 different places along the 2,600 km long border. In these attacks, military bases located inside the country were also targeted. After this, Pakistan retaliated by carrying out air strikes.

According to Minister Atullah Tarar, the action taken by Pakistan so far has included-
- 182 Afghan posts (checkposts) were destroyed.
- 31 posts were captured by Pakistan’s security forces.
- 185 tanks, armored vehicles and artillery were destroyed.
- Air strikes were carried out at 46 places inside Afghanistan.
The campaign is still going on
Pakistan’s Federal Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Tariq Fazal Chaudhary said that the operation is still going on. He termed as wrong the news circulating on social media in which it was being said that Pakistan has stopped the action. He said that due to national security reasons, videos related to Pakistan Air Force (PAF) and drones are not being shared with the media at present. But this does not mean that the operation has stopped.
Women pilots carried out air strikes
Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said on social media that the air strikes in Kabul and Kandahar were carried out by women fighter pilots of Pakistan Air Force. He titled his post Revenge of power and said that women pilots have responded to those who attacked girls’ schools. This statement points towards the incidents in which the Taliban were accused of demolishing girls’ schools in Pakistan.
