In a fatal security operation in the capital, de facto security forces raided a private residence in the Spin Jumat area of Batkhaak Kamarai, located within Kabul’s Bagrami district, resulting in the death of a young child.
According to internal reporting and statements from relatives obtained by Zawiya News, the victims were visiting from eastern Nangarhar province as guests when de facto fighters stormed the property without advance warning or administrative authorization.
Unchecked Fire on Civilian Occupants
Family members reported that during the surprise raid, armed personnel opened fire toward the residential quarters occupied by women and children:
- Child Casualty: A child identified as Ali was struck by gunfire during the indiscriminate shooting and died from his injuries at the scene.
- Lack of Formal Justification: De facto authorities have provided no official explanation or statement regarding the operational grounds for targeting the home, nor have they identified any suspect sought during the raid.
- Pattern of Residential Intrusion: Local human rights monitors note that this incident marks at least the fifth documented case of lethal civilian casualties arising from arbitrary residential house raids conducted by de facto security and intelligence units across Kabul.
Systemic Risks of Domestic Raids
The fatal raid in Bagrami highlights the persistent lack of judicial warrants, operational standards, and oversight governing security sweeps in urban centers. Human rights organizations continue to document severe civilian harm caused by unauthorized night raids, forcefully breaching private residences and threatening innocent families across provincial capitals.
