At least 44 die in Pakistan suicide bombing

In a tragic incident on Sunday, a suicide bomber targeted a political rally in the northwestern Bajaur district of Pakistan, resulting in the death of at least 44 people and leaving nearly 200 others wounded. The attack took place during a gathering of the conservative Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) party, located on the outskirts of Khar, a town bordering Afghanistan.

As of now, there has been no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack. However, initial investigations indicate that the ISIL (ISIS) group might be behind the assault, though officers are still conducting their investigation.

The suicide bomber detonated his explosives vest near the stage where several senior party leaders were present. The JUI-F party is a prominent political force in Pakistan, and the incident has sent shockwaves through the region.

Feroz Jamal, the provincial information minister, reported that 44 people have lost their lives in this horrific attack, while nearly 200 others have been wounded. The wounded have been taken to hospitals in Bajaur and nearby areas. The critically injured have been transported to hospitals in the provincial capital, Peshawar, by military helicopters.

In the aftermath of the attack, an emergency has been declared in the affected hospitals to ensure prompt medical attention to the victims. Rescue workers and authorities have been working diligently to provide aid and support to those affected by this devastating act of violence.

The ISIL’s presence in neighboring Afghanistan has been a cause of concern, with members known to cross the porous mountainous border and find shelter in the Peshawar area. As investigations continue, security forces and authorities are on high alert to prevent further attacks and maintain stability in the region.
