A bomb explosion in North Waziristan’s Gul Mirkot Tehsil Shawal area claimed the lives of 11 labourers and left several injured on Saturday. The blast occurred near a civilian vehicle, and as a result, the vehicle was obliterated. Current updates suggest that two injured labourers are in critical condition, while three are unaccounted for.
Post the explosion, local law enforcement swiftly secured and isolated the location. Simultaneously, emergency response teams arrived to evacuate the casualties and tend to the injured, transporting them to the nearest medical facility for treatment.
Anwaarul Haq Kakar, the Interim Prime Minister, expressed profound sorrow over the incident on social media. In his words, “It’s devastating to learn of the attack in North Waziristan that took the lives of 11 innocent labourers. I vehemently denounce this tragic act of violence and extend my condolences to the grieving families.”
