Taliban’s Amir Khan Muttaqi Urges Envoys to Raise Pakistan Airstrikes Issue at International Forums

The Taliban’s Foreign Ministry announced that Amir Khan Muttaqi has asked the group’s ambassadors in various countries to raise the issue of Pakistan’s airstrikes on Afghanistan with international organizations. According to the ministry, this request follows Pakistan’s recent attack on a drug rehabilitation center in Kabul.

In a statement released on Wednesday, March 17, it was reported that Muttaqi discussed the dimensions of this incident during a video conference with ambassadors. He described the attack as a “clear violation of international principles” and called for it to be highlighted in global forums.

The Taliban administration claims that approximately 400 people were killed as a result of this attack. However, no independent and verified details about the exact number of casualties have been released so far, and neutral organizations have not confirmed the figures provided.

Meanwhile, several United Nations-affiliated bodies have called for an independent and transparent investigation into the incident. These calls come amid restrictions on media and watchdogs’ access to accurate information within the country, an issue that has been repeatedly criticized by human rights organizations.
