Pakistan Holds State Funeral After Deadly Bannu Militant Attack Kills 21 Police Officers

Описание: Pakistan held state funeral prayers for 21 police officers killed in a devastating militant attack on a police post in the northwestern district of Bannu. According to officials, the assault began with a powerful car bombing that destroyed the police outpost before militants launched a deadly ambush on officers rushing to the scene. Authorities later recovered the bodies of 14 personnel from the collapsed structure while three surviving officers were rescued and taken to hospital.

The militant alliance Ittehad-ul-Mujahideen claimed responsibility for the coordinated attack, further escalating security concerns in Pakistan’s volatile border regions. Islamabad has repeatedly accused the Taliban-led government in Afghanistan of allowing militants to operate from Afghan territory and launch attacks into Pakistan. Kabul has denied the accusations.

Although violence eased following Pakistani airstrikes inside Afghanistan earlier this year, tensions between the two countries remain high with no formal ceasefire agreement in place. The Bannu attack has once again highlighted the fragile security situation along the Afghanistan Pakistan border and growing fears of renewed militant activity in the region.
