A car bombing at a police post in northwestern Pakistan was followed by an ambush on responding personnel, initiating a deadly sequence of events.
The combined assault tragically resulted in the deaths of at least 12 police officers, as reported by The Hindu and Al Arabiya.
The attack took place in the Fateh Khel area of Bannu, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, where, according to Bannu police official Muhammad Sajjad Khan via AFP, "a suicide bomber rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into a police checkpoint, after which multiple militants entered the post".
Images from Saturday's attack depicted the police post reduced to rubble, with charred wreckage and mangled vehicles scattered around the area, a detail also noted by The Hindu.
While initial reports indicated 12 fatalities, other news organizations such as EFE and The Washington Post reported a higher death toll, with at least 15 officers killed.
A newly formed militant group, Ittehad-ul-Mujahideen Pakistan (IMP, also referred to as Ittehad-ul-Mujahideen Pakistan), claimed responsibility for the attack, according to sources including The Washington Post and Xinhua.
