Security forces in northwest Pakistan successfully thwarted a terrorist attack on Bannu Cantonment on Tuesday evening. Police reports confirm that two suicide bombers detonated themselves near the outer wall of the military complex, initiating the attack.

In the aftermath of the explosion, a group of five to six attackers attempted to infiltrate the cantonment but were swiftly neutralized by vigilant security personnel. The Hafiz Gul Bahadur affiliated group, Jaish-Al Fursan, later claimed responsibility for orchestrating the assault, confirming that two vehicles packed with explosives were used in the attack.

Despite the significant threat posed, authorities managed to prevent penetration into the high-security zone. As investigations continue, security operations remain ongoing in the region to safeguard against any further threats.
