Pakistan witnesses 79% jump in terror attacks claiming 389 lives

Pakistan, in the first half of the current year, has witnessed an alarming rise in terror and suicide attacks claiming the lives of 389 people in the nation, Dawn reported citing Pakistan Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS) report. In the report, the data revealed that a total of 271 attacks had taken place in Pakistan during the period under review, which took 389 lives and injured 656 others. Last year, in the same period, Pakistan witnessed 151 attacks, causing 293 deaths and 487 injuries. The figures depict a staggering 79 per cent increase in attacks during the first half of 2023 compared to the corresponding period last year. The alarming figures indicate the situation in Pakistan, which has been accused of harbouring terror. Notably, India’s External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar took a swipe at Islamabad months ago by recalling Hillary Clinton's advice. Responding to Pakistan’s Minister of State Foreign Affairs Hina Rabbani, EAM Jaishankar said, “Snakes in your backyard, you can’t expect them to bite only neighbours, eventually they will bite the people who keep them in the backyard.” He also said that Pakistan was “not great at taking good advice”.
