In Pakistan, a deadly attack on an army compound in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province near the Afghan border has resulted in the deaths of at least 23 soldiers and numerous injuries. Militants affiliated with the Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, which involved a vehicle filled with explosives ramming into the compound’s building. Prior to this, militants attempted to breach the compound but were unsuccessful. The compound was being used as a base camp for the Pakistani army, and there are concerns that stored ammunition may have contributed to the destruction. This incident is part of a rising trend of militant attacks in Pakistan’s border regions, and experts believe that the Afghan Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan has emboldened groups like the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).Â
