Recent airstrikes by Pakistan in Afghanistan have underscored its overwhelming superiority in conventional warfare, as reported by the New York Times on February 28, 2026. However, despite these military advantages, the Taliban have adapted by refining their guerrilla tactics, complicating the conflict and raising questions about a clear endgame.

This operation marks one of the most extensive offensives in recent years, aiming to dismantle Taliban strongholds and disrupt their operational capabilities.
