RAWALPINDI – Intelligence reports have sounded alarm over rising terror threats in major Pakistani cities as the country is facing a fresh wave of terrorism ahead of elections.
Police and other law enforcement forces across the South Asian nation are on high alert due to intelligence reports about potential terrorist activities by armed groups, including TTP.
Reports warned that around 17 suicide bombers got task to target key cities, leading authorities to increase security nationwide.
The warning unearthed plans by TTP’s leadership for terror attacks in Pakistani cities. TTP allegedly received funds from Afghan officials, per reports.
In the attacks, TTP and its splinter groups used sophisticated weapons like night vision glasses and rocket launchers, to target law enforcement agencies.
Reports also suggest that Baloch armed groups are planning to target local communities, police, and law enforcement agencies, possibly with support from Indian intelligence.
