3 Federal Constabulary men martyred in terrorist attack in KP’s Karak

LAKKI MARWAT: Three Federal Constabulary (FC) men were martyred in a terrorist attack in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Karak district on Monday, according to officials.

In a statement, Karak police spokesperson Shaukat Khan said terrorists initially carried out a quadcopter attack on the FC fort in the Dargah Shaheedan area.

Karak District Police Officer Shahbaz Elahi said that as the injured were being transported to the hospital via an ambulance, the vehicle was also ambushed by terrorists, leading to the martyrdom of three FC personnel.

Last week, a terrorist attack, involving an explosive-laden vehicle, on a checkpost in KP’s Bajaur district martyred 11 security personnel.

On February 18, two FC personnel were injured when unidentified assailants attacked a checkpost in the Salgazi area of Wazir subdivision.

In November last year, in a major attack on the force, three FC personnel were martyred in a suicide attack on the force’s headquarters in Peshawar’s Saddar area.

KP has seen a rise in terrorist attacks in the past year. According to the Annual Security Report 2025 from the Centre for Research and Security Studies (CRSS), KP recorded a significant surge in violence last year as “fatalities rose from 1,620 in 2024 to 2,331 in 2025”.

This marked an “absolute increase of 711 deaths, accounting for over 82 per cent of the net national rise and marking almost a 44pc year-on-year surge in violence in the province”.
