"textContent": "PESHAWAR: Three Frontier Constabulary (FC) personnel were martyred and several others wounded in a militant attack involving a quadcopter drone and subsequent gunfire on ambulances in the Karak district o Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.\n\nSecurity sources said that the attack targeted an FC fort near Dargah Shaheedan in the Bahadar Khel area, within the limits of Khurram Muhammad Zai Police Station.\n\nDistrict Police Officer Saud Khan said that militants used a quadcopter drone to drop explosives on the fort, wounding five personnel.\n\nHe said that as the injured were being transported to hospital, gunmen ambushed the ambulances, opened fire and set the vehicles ablaze, martyring three FC members.\n\nRescue 1122 staff were also targeted in the attack, the police officer said adding that the wounded victims were shifted to Khalifa Gul Nawaz Hospital in Bannu.\n\nSecurity forces launched a search operation in the area following the assault and later cleared the vicinity, officials said.\n\nThere was no immediate claim of responsibility, but the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan is suspected to be behind the attack. The banned outfit has stepped up attacks on security forces in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and other areasin recent months.\n\nPakistan has witnessed a surge in militant violence since a fragile truce between the government and the TTP collapsed in late 2022.\n\nThe group, also referred to by authorities as “Fitna al-Khawarij,” has primarily targeted police and paramilitary forces in the northwest.\n\nKhyber Pakhtunkhwa, bordering Afghanistan, has long been a hotspot for Islamist militant activity, and security officials have warned of increasingly sophisticated tactics, including the use of improvised explosive devices and small drones.\n\nThe post Three FC personnel martyred in quadcopter drone attack in Karak appeared first on HUM News.",
