Islamabad, Pakistan – At least 12 people have been killed in a devastating suicide bombing in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, according to confirmation from the country’s Interior Minister.
The blast occurred earlier today in a busy district of the city, targeting both civilians and security personnel. Emergency responders rushed to the scene, where several others sustained critical injuries and were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment.
Authorities have cordoned off the area, with initial investigations pointing to terrorist involvement, though no group has yet claimed responsibility.
The attack marks one of the deadliest incidents in the capital in recent years and comes amid growing concerns over a resurgence of extremist activities in parts of Pakistan.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has condemned the attack, calling it a “cowardly act against peace and stability,” and vowed that those responsible will be brought to justice.
