The attacks come two weeks after the start of the current escalation between both countries, which has already left dozens dead on both sides.
As reported in X by Kabul Police spokesperson Khalid Zadran, the attacks left at least four dead and fifteen injured in a residential area of the Afghan capital, including women and children.
Last Sunday, Taliban Defense Minister Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid warned that Kabul would attack Islamabad if Pakistan bombed the Afghan capital again and assured that his forces are prepared for a prolonged conflict.
Pakistan has assured on previous occasions that its attacks in Afghan territory target bases of the insurgent group, or Pakistani Taliban, whom it blames for the violence in its country and for operating with the support of the Afghan Taliban.
The Taliban government, however, has repeatedly denied that the TTP operates from Afghanistan or that its territory is used to plan attacks against Pakistan.
