News in Detail: pakistan

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan – A late-night airstrike by the Pakistani Air Force has left at least 30 people dead, including women and children, in the Tirah Valley of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

The attack occurred around 2 AM when JF-17 fighter jets dropped eight LS-6 bombs on Matre Dara village. The strike caused widespread devastation, with homes reduced to rubble and bodies strewn across the streets. Harrowing images and videos from the scene show the lifeless bodies of children among the victims.

Local residents described the incident as a massacre, with entire families wiped out in moments. Survivors said the scale of destruction was so severe that rescue efforts were almost impossible in the dark hours following the bombing.

International human rights organisations have strongly condemned the attack, calling for an impartial investigation. They stressed that the protection of civilians must remain a priority and urged accountability for any violations of international humanitarian law.

The Pakistani military and government have so far remained silent on the incident. Observers note that such silence aligns with a history of military operations against its own citizens, particularly in conflict-hit regions like Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan.

As outrage grows, calls for transparency and justice are mounting both within Pakistan and internationally.
