Taliban chief spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said Pakistan carried out overnight airstrikes in three eastern provinces, including Khost, Kunar and Paktika that killed nine children and a woman.
The shelling struck the Gurbuz district of Khost province around midnight, where Mujahid said a family home belonging to a man named Waliyat‑Khan, son of Qazi‑Mir, was destroyed.
