The incident was claimed by Jaish al-Fursan, a group connected to the Pakistan Taliban.

According to police and a medical official, a bombing strike at a security installation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan’s northwest frontier region, has killed at least 12 people.

According to a security officer who spoke to The Associated Press news agency on condition of anonymity, two assailants crashed two vehicles carrying explosives into the Bannu compound’s wall, and further attackers rushed the area before being driven out.

Twelve people were killed and thirty injured in the attack, according to Muhammad Noman, a spokesman for Bannu District Hospital. He said that all of the victims were civilians trapped beneath walls and houses that had collapsed.

According to a hospital registry, at least seven children were among the dead.

Numerous members of Pakistani security personnel were murdered, according to a group connected to the Pakistani Taliban, who also claimed responsibility for the attack. Regarding any casualties, the military did not immediately comment.

Six assailants were killed in a “exchange of fire” following the attack, a police officer told the news agency AFP on condition of anonymity.

He claimed that the explosions were so powerful that they had damaged at least eight nearby homes and had left “two four-foot craters”.

The incident, the third in Pakistan since Ramadan began on Sunday, was claimed by Jaish al-Fursan. The gang claimed in a statement that cars loaded with explosives were the cause of the explosions.

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister Ali Amin Gandapur denounced the incident and stated that he had asked top police authorities for a report on the explosions.

Key Taliban leaders in the same province visited an Islamic religious institution in Pakistan where a suicide bomber killed six people a few days prior to the attack.

With a spike in attacks that claimed over 1,600 lives, last year was the worst for Pakistan in ten years, according to the Center for Research and Security Studies, a research group located in Islamabad.

The Taliban administration disputes Islamabad’s accusation that Kabul’s leaders have not done enough to expel militants who are taking refuge on Afghan territory in order to launch attacks on Pakistan.
