India Rejects Pakistan’s Allegations After North Waziristan Attack
In a devastating attack in North Waziristan, located in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, a suicide bomber targeted a military convoy, killing 13 Pakistani soldiers and injuring 24 others. The incident occurred in an area long known for militant activity and instability, and it marks one of the deadliest attacks on the Pakistani military in recent months.
According to Pakistani military sources, the bomber rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into a convoy transporting security personnel. The force of the blast caused widespread damage, and rescue teams rushed to the site to transport the injured to nearby hospitals. Many of the injured are reported to be in critical condition, raising fears that the death toll may increase.
In the wake of the attack, Pakistan’s government was quick to suggest external interference, indirectly pointing fingers at India for allegedly supporting militant groups operating in the region. However, India’s Ministry of External Affairs has firmly rejected these allegations, calling them “baseless” and “diversionary tactics.” India strongly condemned the attack and expressed that Pakistan must address its internal security failures rather than shifting blame.
Security analysts have pointed out that North Waziristan remains a volatile region despite years of military operations. The area has seen a resurgence in attacks by extremist groups, and experts believe that Pakistan’s inability to control terrorism within its borders continues to threaten regional stability. The latest attack underscores the urgent need for Pakistan to take decisive action against extremist elements operating within its territory.
