It is the latest escalation of tensions between the neighbouring countries. Afghanistan's Taliban government said it had launched an offensive on Pakistani military bases near the border on Thursday night.
Pakistan responded within hours, bombing targets in the Afghan capital, Kabul, and the provinces of Kandahar and Paktika - Afghan provinces close to its 2,600km (1,615 miles) border. Details are still emerging and the BBC has yet to confirm whether there are casualties on either side.
