The recent U.S. airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear sites have not only escalated tensions in the Middle East but have also drawn sharp criticism from Afghanistan’s interim Taliban government. In an official statement issued by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, the Taliban government expressed its strong condemnation of the American strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, describing the attacks as unacceptable and destabilizing for the entire region.
The Taliban’s foreign ministry, speaking on behalf of the interim government, criticized both Israel and the United States for their continued aggression against Iran. The ministry pointed out that while Israel had already been conducting repeated airstrikes on Iranian positions, America’s direct involvement by targeting Iran's critical nuclear infrastructure has further worsened the situation. The Taliban called the American airstrikes on Iran’s sovereign territory as a blatant violation of national integrity and sovereignty.
Highlighting the growing instability across the region, the Taliban government emphasized that such military interventions only deepen existing conflicts and create fertile ground for more violence and chaos. The statement labeled the U.S. attacks as "irresponsible behavior," warning that destabilizing a nation like Iran in this manner poses a significant threat to peace and stability not just in the Middle East but globally.
The Taliban’s foreign ministry reiterated its long-standing position, stating that all parties involved should resolve their disputes through dialogue and diplomatic negotiations rather than resorting to military aggression. The interim Afghan government also reminded the global community of its earlier concerns over Israel’s ongoing attacks on Iranian targets. At that time, the Taliban had already warned that continued Israeli airstrikes could lead to widespread regional instability and deteriorating conditions.
The recent escalation began when American B-2 bombers launched coordinated strikes on three major Iranian nuclear sites. Following the attack, the U.S. claimed that it had successfully destroyed significant portions of Iran's nuclear infrastructure. While these developments were celebrated in Israel, Iran immediately began preparing for retaliatory actions. Iran’s military response has reportedly included the use of hypersonic missiles targeting Israeli positions, causing substantial damage.
Now, with both Israel and the United States taking aggressive military steps, Afghanistan’s Taliban government has voiced its strong disapproval of Washington’s role in escalating the conflict. The Taliban has urged the international community to raise its voice against Israel’s and America’s military actions, emphasizing that such interventions will only worsen the already volatile situation in the region.
As tensions rise, global leaders are watching closely, concerned that the conflict could spiral further out of control, drawing more countries into a broader regional war. The Taliban’s statement serves as a stark reminder of how interconnected and fragile the security dynamics of the Middle East have become.
