A United Nations mission in Afghanistan says it has documented the deaths of 13 civilians following Pakistani airstrikes in eastern Afghanistan. Multiple outlets report that the UN findings confirm a death toll previously stated by Afghan authorities. The reported victims include mainly children and women. The UN documentation concerns airstrikes carried out the previous day, with the mission announcing its assessment on Thursday. The reports describe the figure as confirmed by the UN mission, indicating that its investigation aligns with Afghan government figures. The coverage does not provide additional details about the specific locations struck, the timing beyond “the previous day,” or the circumstances of the attacks, but it consistently characterizes the UN’s role as verifying the civilian casualty number. No outlet cited here includes information about any response or dispute from Pakistan, nor does it describe any independent verification beyond the UN mission’s documentation and Afghan authorities’ original toll.
