“Afghanistan says 400 people were killed in a Pakistan airstrike on a Kabul hospital treating drug users”
Afghanistan's Taliban government claims Pakistan conducted an airstrike on a drug rehabilitation hospital in Kabul that killed approximately 400 people. Pakistan has not confirmed conducting such a strike, and independent verification of the casualty figures and attack details remains limited. The incident occurs amid ongoing tensions between the two countries over cross-border security issues.
“Iranian drones have repeatedly hit Dubai International Airport since the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran”
No credible evidence exists of Iranian drone strikes on Dubai International Airport following any U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran as of March 2026. Dubai International Airport has not reported any drone strikes, and neither the UAE government nor international aviation authorities have documented such attacks. While regional tensions exist, this specific claim lacks verification from authoritative sources.
“President Trump claimed the U.S. had 'destroyed 100% of Iran's Military capability'”
President Trump claimed the U.S. destroyed 100% of Iran's military capability following strikes in 2026. Available evidence indicates U.S. military strikes targeted specific Iranian military assets, but no official U.S. military assessments support the claim of complete destruction of Iran's military capability. Iran continues to maintain active military forces, infrastructure, and operational capabilities.
