As a result of an armed terrorist attack on a military base and medical center in northwestern Pakistan, 28 people, including 10 military personnel, female medical personnel and children, were killed, Devdiscourse reports. The clash between security forces and terrorists lasted for more than 26 hours. All 10 attackers were killed.

First, a military base in Bannu was also attacked. The terrorist, who was in a car filled with explosives, crashed into the wall surrounding the object. There was an explosion. Eight servicemen died on the spot. After the fall of the wall, other terrorists entered the base, where another firefight with the military began. It is necessary to prevent casualties in the middle of the population. Because the military part, preserved from the British colonial period, is closely surrounded by residential buildings and civilian objects.

Later, a medical center in Dera Ismail Khan was attacked, killing five civilians, including two children.

"Pakistan's army is taking all necessary measures against threats coming from Afghanistan," said Pakistan's Ministry of Defense. However, the Taliban denied involvement in the attacks. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attacks.
