Rescue teams work amidst the ruins of a drug rehabilitation centre in Kabul, targeted in a Pakistani air strike during Ramadan, as survivors recount the terrifying moments during the attack. The strike on the Omid Addiction Treatment Hospital occurred at approximately 21:00 local time (16:30 GMT), resulting in an increasing death toll now estimated at around 400, according to Taliban officials. The hospital was crowded with patients who had just finished dinner and were praying when the tragedy struck. Mohammad Shafee, one of the survivors, described how he was in the kitchen when the blast occurred, resulting in most of his colleagues and patients being hit. Doctors and military sources verify the chaos that ensued with claims that nearby military units engaged the jet, which subsequently unleashed bombs. The condition of numerous victims is critical, with many undergoing treatment for serious injuries. The facility, previously known as Camp Phoenix, transitioned from a military base to a rehabilitation centre for drug addiction management in recent years, amidst Afghanistan’s growing addiction crisis. The Pakistani government has denied intentionally targeting the rehab facility, defending their actions as precise military operations against insurgent infrastructure. As tensions escalate between the two neighbors, experts express concerns about health facilities being caught in the crossfire, as humanitarian crises deepen with ongoing hostilities.
