The airstrike targeted seven villages, including Laman, with significant damage reported in Barmal’s Murg Bazaar village.

In response, the Taliban’s Ministry of Defense has vowed retaliation for the airstrike on Paktika. While Pakistani officials have not officially confirmed the attack, security sources close to the military claim that the operation targeted Taliban hideouts near the border.
