A roadside blast caused by an improvised explosive device killed one Pakistani police officer and wounded three others as they escorted a convoy of foreign diplomats in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The diplomats were traveling to a tourist area in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, which is a base for militant groups, including the Pakistani Taliban, illustrating the ongoing security challenges in Pakistan.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and President Asif Ali Zardari condemned the attack, emphasizing their support for law enforcement and the continuing threats faced by Pakistan.
Despite the attack, the diplomats from twelve countries returned safely to Islamabad, which underscores the complexity and risks of diplomatic engagements in volatile regions.
