Military Tensions Escalate Between Afghanistan and Pakistan

Military conflict between Afghanistan and Pakistan continued into its sixth day on Tuesday, with tensions remaining high. According to Ming Pao, the Pakistani military launched an airstrike on Afghanistan's Bagram Air Base early Sunday morning. Although Afghanistan claimed to have successfully intercepted the Pakistani attack on the former U.S. military base, satellite images obtained by The New York Times indicate that several warehouses at the base were destroyed. The incident has further escalated the ongoing "open war" between the two nations.
