Pakistan and Afghanistan engaged in ongoing military exchanges on Saturday with contradictory reports about their effectiveness. Pakistan's Information Minister claimed over 331 Afghan Taliban forces were killed and 500 wounded during airstrikes and clashes, with strikes targeting 37 locations across Afghanistan. Pakistani forces reported destroying over 100 Afghan posts, capturing 22 others, and destroying 163 tanks and armored vehicles. Afghanistan's Defense Ministry countered by claiming their forces attacked Pakistani military bases in Miranshah and Spin Wam, destroying installations and causing heavy casualties. Afghan officials also claimed shooting down a Pakistani jet near Jalalabad and capturing its pilot. Both nations discredited each other's versions of events while hundreds of residents near the Torkham border crossing sought refuge.
