A deputy spokesperson for the Afghan Taliban said three members of one family were killed when an air raid struck a house in Afghanistan's eastern Kunar province.
The Taliban official attributed the attack to Pakistani air operations, saying the strike hit the home and caused the fatalities. No further details on the identities of the victims or the precise timing of the raid were provided in the statement.
Kunar province, which borders Pakistan, has frequently been the scene of clashes and cross-border incidents in recent years; the spokesperson's remarks did not include additional information about the wider circumstances surrounding this particular strike.
The claim by the Taliban deputy spokesperson could not be independently verified. There was no immediate, publicly available confirmation from Pakistani authorities in response to the account provided to media outlets.
