India has strongly denied Pakistan’s accusations linking it to a recent suicide bombing in North Waziristan, Pakistan. The attack, which happened near the Afghan border, resulted in the deaths of at least 13 Pakistani soldiers. Pakistani officials have blamed India for the incident; however, India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) labeled these claims as contemptible and baseless.
According to reports, a suicide bomber drove an explosive-laden car into a Pakistani military convoy, leading to significant casualties. The militant group Hafiz Gul Bahadur, known to operate in the region, claimed responsibility for the attack. Notably, the border areas of Pakistan have experienced a recent surge in militant violence.
At a press conference, Indian officials emphasized that India had no role in the attack. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal dismissed the Pakistan Army’s accusations as a deliberate attempt to deflect responsibility from their own security challenges.
Key details from the initial investigation include:
- The bombing involved approximately 800 kilograms of explosives
- It ranks as one of the deadliest attacks in the area in recent times
The escalating violence raises serious concerns about the security and stability along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. Tensions remain high as both neighboring nations continue to accuse each other of involvement in cross-border attacks. The international community is closely monitoring the evolving situation.
