A security forces vehicle was completely destroyed in a powerful explosion on in the Wanda Saimu area of Lakki Marwat district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, in what officials suspect to be a targeted improvised explosive device (IED) attack. Initial reports from police sources indicate that the blast occurred near the vehicle, reducing it to wreckage. The nature of the explosion suggests it was pre-planned and intended to inflict maximum damage. Law enforcement and security personnel rushed to the site immediately following the incident, securing the area and initiating a thorough search operation.
“As per preliminary findings, the explosion appears to be the result of an IED,” a police official stated, adding that efforts are underway to determine the extent of human casualties and material damage.
Authorities have not yet confirmed the number of injuries or fatalities, but sources say rescue and bomb disposal teams are actively working on site. The incident marks yet another grim reminder of the persistent threat posed by militant elements in the region.
