Following strikes in the northwest, two children and four Pakistani soldiers were killed.

Security forces also responded to the attack and killed five militants, according to a statement from the Pakistani military.

In unrest in northwest Pakistan, a roadside bomb detonated close to a car transporting security personnel, killing four officers and injuring five more, according to officials. That same day, two youngsters were murdered when a mortar detonated close to them in another part of the northwest.

According to local police official Dilawar Khan, the roadside explosion occurred on Wednesday in the South Waziristan district, which was once a Pakistani Taliban stronghold.

While acknowledging the “martyrdom” of four officers, the military stated in a statement that security forces also responded to the attack and killed five “Khwarij,” a term the military uses to refer to the Pakistani Taliban.

Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi honored the fallen officers in a statement.

An increase in violence
Although no one immediately took credit for the attack, the Pakistani Taliban, also known as Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, have increased their attacks in the area since the Afghan Taliban, their allies, took control of neighboring Afghanistan in 2021.

Two schoolchildren who were walking to school were killed Wednesday after an insurgent-fired mortar fell close to a road in the Tirah valley of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region, according to authorities.

In a probe into an attack Tuesday in which a guard shot and injured two Chinese nationals at a textile mill in the port city of Karachi, purportedly over a private quarrel, Naqvi met with Chinese ambassador Jiang Zaidong in Islamabad on Thursday.

Better security for Chinese nationals working in Pakistan for Beijing’s multibillion-dollar Belt and Road Initiative has been a common demand from China. There are also an undetermined number of Chinese workers in the nation’s factories.
