Pakistan-Afghanistan tensions: UN team in Afghanistan says 10 civilians killed in airstrikes
Pakistan has launched deadly strikes on Afghanistan's Helmand and Kunar provinces. Islamabad confirmed they were "planned, calibrated and targeted militants". But the Taliban government said civilians were killed, while a United Nations team in Afghanistan has placed the toll at 10. The strikes come amid repeated cross-border clashes between the two countries over a longstanding dispute on militant activity along their border. Hira Mustafa reports from Islamabad.
