Pakistan shoots down several drones launched by Khwarij in KP cities
The Fitna Al-Khwarij terrorists, backed by the Afghan Taliban, tried to launch drone attacks in several Khyber Pakhtunkhwa cities including Swabi, Abbottabad and Nowshera on Friday, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
Security sources said Pakistan’s anti-drone systems successfully intercepted and shot down all the drones. No casualties were reported in the incidents, they said.
The sources said the failed attacks once again exposed the nexus between the Afghan Taliban regime and terrorist activities in Pakistan.
A schoolgirl was injured while other children narrowly survived the firstever drone attack in Swabi district.
Assistant Superintendent of Police Muhammad Numan confirmed the attack when contacted, saying that a heavy police contingent immediately reached the venue where the attack took place.
The incident occurred in Pabbini, a village in the mountainous region of Gadoon Amazai, while children were playing near the government girls’ higher secondary school.
According to Numan, the injured girl has been taken to the hospital.
The drone caused panic among residents of the village, who gathered in large numbers at the site of the attack.
It was also not clear that who was the target but the officials said that it seemed that the girls’ school was on the radar, as the girls were returning home when the attack took place.
ASP Numan said, “It was a self-made drone that also contained explosives which caused the explosion. We are investigating the incident.”
The law enforcement agencies have collected the pieces of exploded drone which will be studied to determine the nature of the drone and its destructive capabilities.
