India rejects statement by Pakistan seeking to blame it for Waziristan attack
- On June 28, a suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle into a military convoy in Mir Ali, North Waziristan, killing 13 Pakistani soldiers and injuring dozens including civilians.
- The attack took place during a spike in militant activity following the breakdown of a ceasefire agreement with the Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan late in 2022, amid continuing unrest in North Waziristan near the border with Afghanistan.
- Responsibility for the attack was claimed by a Taliban faction operating in North Waziristan led by Hafiz Gul Bahadur, while Pakistan's military accused India of supporting the assailants—a charge that India denounced as utterly baseless.
- Pakistani officials described the incident as a "cowardly attack," with key figures like Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur and President Erdogan condemning the violence and expressing solidarity with Pakistan.
- The attack highlighted ongoing security challenges in the restive region and led Pakistan's military to vow continuing operations against militants, while diplomatic tensions between Pakistan and India remain high.
