00:00Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif says Pakistan has run out of patience and is now in open war with Afghanistan.
00:08The announcement follows an attack on Thursday evening that destroyed Pakistani border posts and key installations.
00:15In response, Pakistan launched early Friday airstrikes on major Afghan military facilities, military sources say.
00:23Earlier on Friday, Pakistani jets targeted Afghan-Taliban facilities, hitting a major ammunition depot, three battalions and a sector headquarters
00:32across several provinces.
00:34Afghan government spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid confirmed the strikes on X, saying targets in Kabul, southern Kandahar and eastern Pakhtia were
00:43hit.
00:44This marks the latest escalation after months of hostilities between the two countries.
00:49The last serious flare-up was in October 2025, followed by a fragile ceasefire and diplomatic efforts led by Turkey
00:57and Qatar.
00:58Negotiations ultimately failed, with both sides blaming each other for not engaging seriously in the process.
