Mianwali terror attack: Leadership vows to resist attempts to destabilise Pakistan

Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar on Saturday expressed the resolve to resist the attempts to undermine national security, as the terrorists attacked a training airbase in Mianwali.

Kakar – after the troops thwarted the terror attack, killing all the nine attackers – in a message posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, said the valiant Pakistan Air Force (PAF) had once again proven its mettle by thwarting a cowardly terrorist attack in Mianwali.

“Any attempt to undermine our security will meet with unwavering resistance. The nation stands with you and we salute your courage and resolve,” he added.

Similarly, Caretaker Interior Minister Sarfraz Bugti said the names of the terrorists involved in the DI Khan, Pasni and Mianwali attacks must be different, but the hidden enemy was the same.

The latest wave of terrorism was an attempt to destabilise Pakistan, said Bugti, who was referring to a series of attacks carried out during the past two days in different parts of the country.

In his reaction, former prime minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned the “cowardly terrorist attack” and saluted the security forces for “their swift action, preventing casualties and foiling evil plans of our enemies.”

“These repeated attacks reveal our enemies’ desperation, but we stand resilient. Our forces are vigilant, united to defeat terrorism. We’re determined to preserve peace and stability,” the PML-N president asserted.
