Once again, Pakistan has breached Afghanistan’s airspace. Its forces targeted a civilian market in the Margha area of Paktika province, near the Durand Line, and also violated the airspace over the capital, Kabul.

This act is unprecedented, violent, and reprehensible in the history of Afghanistan and Pakistan. We strongly condemn this violation of Afghanistan’s sovereignty and affirm that defending our airspace is our legitimate right.

Following these actions, regardless of how critical the situation becomes, the consequences will fall with the Pakistani army.
