Months of fighting between Afghanistan and Pakistan have killed nearly 500 Afghan civilians, UN says

Cross-border fighting between Pakistan and Afghanistan from October to June killed 499 Afghan civilians and wounded 1,216 others, per a UN report. Pakistan accuses Afghanistan of harboring militants, including the Pakistani Taliban, while denying civilian targeting. A March airstrike on a Kabul drug treatment center killed hundreds, with Amnesty International calling for a war crime investigation.
