On Wednesday at around 3:44 PM, Pakistan carried out an airstrike on areas within District 4 of Kabul city, resulting in the serious destruction of several residential homes.
Abdul Rahim, a 50-year-old man living with six family members in one of the damaged houses, is among the main victims. Although his family was not home at the time of the strike, he said the incident caused deep psychological trauma.
Abdul Rahim said: “This brutal attack by Pakistan is clear to everyone, they have repeatedly violated our country. That was my daughter’s room which was hit. None of our neighbors are even military personnel.”
Another affected resident, Habibullah, said: “Our family was terrified. They didn’t know what to do when they realized the house had been hit by a rocket.”
Next to the house was a school that also came under attack. The school had more than 500 students attending 50 classrooms.
Fortunately, students had already been dismissed at the time of the strike, and no casualties were reported, though parts of the school building were damaged.
Mohammad Sadiq, the school official, said: “When families and students returned today, they looked at the school with heartbreak. We saw many in tears. You be the judge, this is a civilian educational space. What crime did this school commit?”
Student Ahmad Mobasher said: “Unfortunately, when we came today and saw the school in this condition, our hearts were broken. Just days ago, we were here studying and laughing together.”
Eyewitnesses said yesterday’s attack created extreme fear and panic among locals, especially women and children.
Saeed Hakimyar, a witness, stated: “People, especially women and children, were terrified and panicked. Everyone was thinking of escaping the area.”
Credible sources confirmed to TOLOnews that Pakistan had targeted parts of Kabul with an airstrike on Wednesday, a strike that resulted in the martyrdom and injury of several civilians, including women and children.
