The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) confirmed that at least 10 civilians (most of them children) were killed and nine others injured as a result of airstrikes in the Afghan provinces of Kunar and Helmand.
The civilian population continues to suffer from cross-border hostilities, the mission notes.
Just a week ago, on September 21, MONSA confirmed the death of at least three and the wounding of four civilians as a result of an airstrike in Kunar province.
Since the beginning of 2026, the mission has recorded more than 1,100 cases of civilian deaths and injuries in Afghanistan as a result of cross-border armed violence.
“MOONSA once again calls for de-escalation, dialogue, and adherence to international law,” the mission stated, urging the protection of the civilian population.
