On June 28, a suicide bombing targeting a military convoy in North Waziristan, Pakistan, claimed the lives of at least 13 soldiers and injured numerous others, including civilians. The explosion occurred near Mir Ali during curfew hours, damaging homes and affecting innocent bystanders. The Hafiz Gul Bahadur group, affiliated with the Pakistani Taliban, has a history of violence in this area. This incident reflects the escalating attacks by the Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) against security forces following the return of the Afghan Taliban, complicating the geopolitical situation in the region.
"The restive district of North Waziristan borders Afghanistan and is one of the regions most affected by the return of the Pakistani Taliban, signaling escalating violence."
"The Hafiz Gul Bahadur group, a local Pakistani Taliban faction, claimed responsibility for the attack, highlighting the ongoing threat they pose in the region."
