Child Survivor of Nangarhar Airstrike Seeks Family Amid Growing Concerns Over Civilian Casualties

Following an airstrike in Gordi Kach area of Behsud district, Nangarhar province, a child who survived the attack is desperately calling for his mother, sisters, and brothers with tears and restlessness. The incident occurred two nights ago, and according to local sources, several members of the child’s family have lost their lives.

A video circulating on social media shows the child repeatedly calling the names of his family members and pleading with local residents to take him to his mother. Bystanders try to calm him, telling him his family is at the hospital; however, the child insists on seeing them immediately.

Based on released information, the airstrike was carried out by Pakistani forces. So far, no further details have been provided regarding the exact number of casualties or the condition of the wounded.

The release of this video has sparked widespread reactions and once again highlighted concerns about civilian casualties in airstrikes. Human rights experts consistently emphasize that the protection of civilians must be a priority in any military operation, and harm to children and other non-combatants must be prevented.
