‘800 Kg of Explosives’: How Suicide Blast Hit Military Convoy in Pakistan’s North Waziristan_ Killing ...

A suicide car bombing using about 800 kilograms of explosives struck a military convoy in North Waziristan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, on Saturday, killing 13 soldiers and injuring dozens including civilians.
The attack followed a pattern of increasing militant violence since the Taliban returned to power in 2021, amid accusations that Afghanistan provides safe haven to insurgents, which Kabul denies.
The bombing caused severe damage to nearby houses, collapsing two roofs and injuring six children, while four soldiers remained critically wounded, and was claimed by the Hafiz Gul Bahadur faction of the Pakistani Taliban.
Security analyst Abdullah Khan described the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group as "more lethal" than the Pakistani Taliban and noted a 5% increase in militant attacks during May 2025 in the region.
Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff vowed to pursue all terrorism perpetrators relentlessly and assured the nation that any attempt to destabilize Pakistan will be met with swift retribution.
