The horrific suicide bombing outside the G-11 Kutchery in Islamabad, which claimed the lives of 12 innocent individuals, has drawn strong condemnation and grief from the international community. United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres expressed his profound sorrow over the brutal attack.
According to the UN spokesperson, Secretary-General Guterres stated he was “deeply distressed” by the suicide attack in Islamabad. He extended his sincere condolences to the families of the victims and condemned all acts of terrorism and violence in the strongest possible terms. The UN chief has called upon Pakistani authorities to ensure a swift and thorough investigation to bring those responsible for this heinous crime to justice.
Meanwhile, local reports detail that the suicide bomber, allegedly riding a motorcycle, detonated his explosives near a police mobile vehicle close to the G-11 Kutchery. Disturbingly, the alleged attacker’s head was found at the scene. Security concerns have amplified following reports that Afghan social media posts related to the attack surfaced prior to the blast, hinting at cross-border connections to terrorism. Local sources have attributed the attack to “Indian-sponsored and Afghan Taliban proxy elements of the Khawarij.”
This terrorist act highlights the severe security challenges currently facing Pakistan. As the global community registers its condemnation, the incident intensifies the need for a robust and unified strategy to combat the roots of terrorism plaguing the region.
