Afghanistan: 70 dead as the country witnesses coldest winter in years| Oneindia News *International
Many provinces in Afghanistan have seen an exceptionally cold winter in the last two weeks, with temperatures dropping to as low as -21 degrees Celsius (-5.8 Fahrenheit) in Kabul.
As confirmed by the country’s Ministry of Disaster Management, at least 70 people and tens of thousands of cattle have died due to freezing temperatures across the country.
Pakistani airstrikes on December 24 targeted villages in Afghanistan’s Paktika province, killing at least 15, including women and children. The Taliban condemned the attacks, vowing retaliation, while Pakistan alleged targeting militant hideouts. Tensions between the nations escalate as civilians bear the brunt of the ongoing conflict.
