At least seven Pakistani security personnel were killed and 11 others injured in an attack by terrorists linked to the Pakistani Taliban on a security post in Pakistan’s troubled Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on Friday. Officials said the attack took place in the Tirah Valley on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
The Hafiz Gul Bahadur group, which had allied itself with the Tariq Afridi group, also known as the Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP)-affiliated Tariq Gedar group, in February, claimed responsibility for the attack in a social media post.
According to officials, the terrorists attacked the Orakzai Scouts check post in an attempt to capture it and later set it on fire. They said that the terrorists used explosives and rocket-propelled grenades in the attack.
