The nation reported 329 violent incidents, including terror attacks and counterterrorism operations, with at least 901 people killed and 599 injured, including civilians, security officials, and terrorists.
At least 11 people, including two FC martyrs, were killed in a suicide attack near Quetta’s FC headquarters on Tuesday, which sparked the spike in terror attacks.
According to security officials, Indian-sponsored terrorists posing as FC troops carried out the suicide bombing using a truck loaded with explosives.
