Three people, including a Punjab police officer, were killed in a shooting incident in Lakki Marwat, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, according to ARY News.
The victims included Sub-Inspector Qadeer Khan from Faisalabad, as well as a father and son. The group was reportedly visiting Lakki Marwat for the holidays when unknown assailants opened fire on them.
The motive behind the attack remains unclear, and authorities have launched an investigation to apprehend the perpetrators. This incident follows two separate explosions in Bajaur merged district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, that left two people dead, including a policeman.
One blast occurred in the Erab area of Tehsil Mohmand, killing one person, while the second blast, in the jurisdiction of the Lowi Mohmand Police Station, resulted in the death of a policeman. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has seen an alarming rise in violent incidents recently.
On November 20, a suicide bombing at a security check post in Bannu killed at least twelve security personnel. The attack, claimed by the Khwarij group, involved an explosive-laden vehicle ramming the post’s perimeter wall, causing significant damage and casualties.
