Blast in Pakistan's Dera Ismail Khan kills 11, injures 30
Police said 30 people were wounded as rescue crews rushed ambulances and firefighters to the blast site.
- On Saturday, a suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle at a police checkpoint in the Darazinda area of Dera Ismail Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, killing at least 11 people and wounding about 30 others.
- Tehrik-E-Taliban Pakistan, or TTP, claimed responsibility for the attack, while Ittihadul Mujahideen Pakistan, led by Afghanistan-based Hafiz Gul Bahadur, also asserted involvement in the bombing and rampage.
- Rescue 1122 spokesperson Bilal Ahmad Faizi said 6 ambulances and more than 25 personnel launched immediate relief operations, with additional teams from Karak and Hangu arriving to assist at the Aman Mela Check Post.
- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Faisal Karim Kundi condemned the attack, terming it a "nefarious conspiracy" by what he labeled "Fitna al-Hindustan Kharijites," while directing authorities to provide medical treatment to the injured.
- This incident follows a surge in militant attacks across the region, including last week's bombing at Kohat Police Lines that killed 23 people, with attacks frequently claimed by the TTP and the Baloch Liberation Army.
