2 Police Officers Killed in Grenade Attack in Pakistan

Israa Farhan At least two Pakistani police officers were killed and another injured in a grenade attack targeting a police patrol vehicle in the volatile Balochistan province on Sunday. According to Geo News, unidentified assailants hurled a hand grenade at a mobile police unit conducting a routine patrol in Dera Bugti, triggering a powerful explosion that left two officers dead at the scene and a third critically wounded. The attack comes just one day after a separate security incident in the Bajaur district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where a rocket targeted the residence of Mubarak Zeb, the Special Assistant to the Prime Minister for Tribal Affairs. Zeb escaped unharmed, though the incident has heightened fears of coordinated attacks on government officials. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned the Bajaur attack and reaffirmed his government's commitment to eradicating terrorism and safeguarding both officials and citizens across the country. Security forces have since launched a search operation to locate the perpetrators of the Dera Bugti attack. Balochistan, Pakistan's largest but least populated province, has long been plagued by separatist violence, Islamist militancy, and tribal unrest, making it a hotspot for insurgent activity. The province's rugged terrain and porous borders often hinder counterterrorism efforts, prompting repeated calls for increased security measures. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand
