Remote Bomb Leaves Two Dead, Over Dozen Injured in Pakistan
The deadly explosion struck Bannu district within Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, marking the latest in an escalating pattern of violent incidents plaguing the region over recent years, local police said in an official statement.
Investigators determined the explosive device had been affixed to a motorcycle before being triggered via remote detonation.
No organization immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.
Bannu, which shares a border with the volatile North Waziristan tribal region, has endured persistent bloodshed predominantly linked to Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), an umbrella organization comprising multiple armed factions.
Pakistan has confronted an intensifying surge of terrorist operations in recent years, with Islamabad attributing the violence to TTP operatives "based in Afghanistan." Kabul has consistently rejected these accusations.
