A blast occurred near a routine movement of security forces and police in Tank city, where an explosive-laden donkey cart was used in a failed attack. The explosion took place approximately 100 meters away from the security team and was initially suspected to be a vehicle-borne IED. It was later confirmed that the explosives were attached to an unmanned donkey cart. The device exploded before reaching its target, causing no damage to security personnel or equipment. However, a nearby car caught fire, and one civilian was injured.
The incident highlights a new tactic involving the use of animal-borne IEDs, indicating a shift in militant methods. Security agencies have been advised to stay alert and take necessary measures to prevent such threats in the future.
