Local observers noted that several vehicles remained parked outside the hospital while media coverage of the incident was underway. The presence of multiple apparently empty ambulances has prompted speculation among some residents about their role during the response operation and whether the scene was staged as part of a broader propaganda campaign.
Pakistan's Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has strongly rejected claims circulating in Afghan media regarding the alleged attacks, dismissing them as a coordinated disinformation campaign. The ministry stated that the Afghan media claims are "a blatant lie and an attempt to gain sympathy to cover up support by Afghan Taliban to Fitna Al Khwarij" .
In a detailed fact-check, the ministry emphasized that Pakistan's military actions are "precise and intelligence-based," adding that "no strike has been carried out on Sayed Jamaluddin Afghani University. The claims are frivolous and fake" .
The ministry called out the "continuous propaganda around phantom strikes" in Kunar by Afghan media and officials, alleging that these efforts are backed by Indian propagandists . The official statement noted that this indicates the "Afghan Taliban Regime, having nothing to offer to her citizens in terms of service, welfare and governance, only relies on misinformation and hate" .
"The only thing they have learnt from their Indian propaganda masters is lies and false flag operations," the ministry added, calling the allegations "absurd" and "pathetic antics" .
Pakistan clarified that as part of Operation Ghazab Lil Haq, whenever and wherever strikes are conducted against Afghan-based terror infrastructure, they are "well declared, fully owned and backed by precise evidence of targeting terror support infrastructure" .
The ministry reiterated that actions against terrorist infrastructure and facilitators will continue with proper documentation, reaffirming that there will be no compromise on national security .
