According to an Islamabad-based research firm, Pakistani security forces suffered the highest number of losses in nearly a decade during the 2024 conflict. The Center for Research and Security Studies said on Tuesday that Pakistani security services had their worst year in nine years. With at least 685 fatalities and 444 terror attacks,” the report stated that “nearly seven lives were lost on average every day.”
In the country’s unstable northwest, which borders Afghanistan, terrorists carried out separate attacks on a security station, a government office, and a police van on Tuesday, killing a police officer and two civilians, including a toddler.
According to local police spokesman Abdullah Khan, the civilian was a Customs department employee, and an officer was also injured in the initial incident at the Draban Post in Dera Ismail Khan, a district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. In the second attack, a roadside bomb detonated outside a government office in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa area of South Waziristan, killing a kid, according to police spokesman Hayat Khan. In the northwest Bannu area on Tuesday, a police car was hit by a roadside bomb, injuring seven people, according to the police.
Although the Pakistani Taliban, also known as Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, who frequently target security forces throughout the nation, particularly in the former, were suspected of being behind the attacks, no one took credit for them.
