The United Arab Emirates has strongly condemned the terrorist attack that targeted a military base in northwest of Pakistan, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries of innocent people.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) affirmed that the UAE expresses its strong condemnation of these criminal acts and its permanent rejection of all forms of violence and terrorism aimed at undermining security and stability in contravention of international law.
The Ministry expressed its sincere condolences and sympathy to the government and people of Pakistan, and to the families of the victims of this terrorist attack, as well as its wishes of a speedy recovery for all the injured.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement that the attack occurred late on Tuesday evening when terrorists attempted to breach the high-security zone by ramming two explosives-laden vehicles into the perimeter wall of the Bannu Cantonment.
“Troops engaged the intruders with precision, eliminating all 16 terrorists, including four suicide bombers,” the ISPR said and added that in the ensuing firefight, five soldiers embraced martyrdom in the line of duty.
