In a shocking and deadly attack, ten Pakistani policemen were killed at a checkpoint near the Afghan border in Dera Ismail Khan district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the ambush, which involved an intense exchange of gunfire lasting nearly an hour.
This assault, executed by a group of 20 to 25 militants, highlights the escalating violence in the region since the Afghan Taliban's resurgence in 2021.
As extremist groups target security forces, concerns grow over the deteriorating security situation in Pakistan.
This incident underscores the ongoing struggle against terrorism and the challenges faced by law enforcement in the volatile border areas.
