ISLAMABAD (Kashmir English): The Ministry of Information on Monday denied reports claiming that Pakistan has conducted strikes on a university and residential areas in Afghanistan’s Kunar province today.
In a post on X, the Fact Checker account of the ministry said that the Afghan media claim is a “blatant lie and an attempt to gain sympathy” to cover up support by the Afghan Taliban to Fitna Al Khwarij.
The ministry shared a news published by the Afghan broadcaster Tolo News, citing the government, which claimed that the missile attacks by the Pakistani military on Sayed Jamaluddin Afghani University and residential areas have killed three people and injured 45.

However, the Ministry of Information clarified that “no strike has been carried out at Sayed Jamaluddin Afghani University, adding that “the claims are frivolous and fake.”
“The pattern is a page of the old playbook where Afghan media creates fake news to cover up the support to terrorist groups and proxies like the Fitna al Khwarij and gets amplification from Indian media,” it wrote.
Pakistan labels reports as ‘fake propaganda’

“The continuous propaganda around phantom strikes in Kunar by Afghan media and officials backed by the Indian propagandists indicates that the Afghan Taliban Regime, having nothing to offer to its citizens in terms of service, welfare, and governance, only relies on misinformation and hate,” it wrote on X.
The post further added that the only thing “they have learnt from their Indian propaganda masters is lies and false flag operations.”
“Such pathetic antics and vile accusations are absurd. It should, however, be clear that as part of Operation Ghazab Lil Haq, whenever and wherever Pakistan strikes the Afghan-based terror infrastructure, it will be as per previous actions, well declared, fully owned and backed by precise evidence of targeting terror support infrastructure,” it added.
