Al Jazeera could not independently verify the casualty claims.<\/p>\n

Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesman for Afghanistan\u2019s government, said the strikes took place late on Wednesday and that at least nine people were killed and 11 others wounded.<\/p>\n

In a post on X, he said the attacks on northeastern Kunar and southern Helmand destroyed three houses.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe condemn this act and consider it an aggression and crime against all accepted principles,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

The alleged attacks come amid an escalation in fighting between the neighbouring countries after three months of relative calm. Islamabad accuses Kabul of harbouring armed groups, including the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, who stage cross-border attacks on its territory.<\/p>\n

The Afghan government \u200cdenies the charge and says the Pakistani attacks have targeted civilian homes, killing and wounding women and children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
