Pakistan Taliban warn of more attacks after police station raid that killed four

Pakistan Taliban's raid on police station killed four, warn more attacks

The police are often used on the frontline of Pakistan’s battle with the Taliban and frequently a target of militants who accuse them of extra-judicial killings. Last month, more than 80 officers were killed when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive vest at a mosque inside a police compound in the northwestern city of Peshawar, sparking criticism from some junior ranks, who said they were having to do the army’s work.

The TTP, which is separate from the Afghan Taliban but with a similar fundamental Islamist ideology, emerged in Pakistan in 2007 and carried out a horrific wave of violence that was largely crushed by a military operation launched in late 2014. But attacks — mostly targeting security forces — have been on the rise again since the Afghan Taliban seized control of Kabul in August 2021 and a shaky months-long ceasefire between the TTP and Islamabad ended in November last year.
