Islamabad, Pakistan — Pakistan has firmly rejected claims by the Afghan Taliban that its forces struck a hospital in Kabul during precision operations under Operation Ghazab lil Haq. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on March 1,7 2026, released satellite imagery and a detailed fact-check proving the actual target was “Camp Phoenix,” a military terrorist ammunition and equipment storage site located several kilometers away from any hospital. The ministry questioned why a supposed drug rehabilitation facility would be located inside a military camp and pointed out that the Taliban even deleted their own misleading post after it failed basic scrutiny. These strikes were carried out only against terrorist infrastructure supporting Fitna al-Khawarij and other proxies, with no civilian targets hit.
