Afghanistan’s defence ministry says its forces killed 28 fighters from Pakistan.

Both governments blame each other’s proxies, letting neither answer for civilians in the border belt.

Kabul says the fighters were former Afghan soldiers recruited by Pakistani intelligence with promises of asylum abroad.

Pakistan denies the claim as fabricated and says it killed 71 people in Balochistan it blames on India.

The UN mission confirmed 3 civilian deaths from Pakistan’s September 21 strikes, with Sunday’s toll still unverified.
